I’m willing to help pursue all viable options here. — PolitiTweet.org

As I said @dlumsden I am keen to do anything I can to help. Have John Lewis said that funding from Scot Gov would enable them to stay open on George Street? How much is required? If it’s not to stay open then what is the funding for, please? — PolitiTweet.org

@dlumsden Glad to hear the meeting went well. How much funding did John Lewis tell you they need to retain the shop and the associated jobs? I’d be keen to hear more details as this was not mooted as a possibility at our meeting with them. — PolitiTweet.org

I wrote for @IndyBlether on our wellbeing economy, and the smart choices @NicolaSturgeon and the @scotgov have made, leading the way on putting Wellbeing at the heart of governance. — PolitiTweet.org

This is bigger than politics. 265 individuals are being consulted with and seem likely to lose their jobs. The impact on the city centre, the wider city and Aberdeenshire will be massive. Nobody should be excluded and we should all work together on solutions. 4/ends. — PolitiTweet.org

...a future for John Lewis in our city. I don't want to see this large building on George Street empty. I don't want to see our city centre further degenerate. We all agree on this. I am happy to help in any way. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

This should not be political. Any action should be cross party. I believe taskforce should have included reps from all parties. We are all agreed that losing John Lewis is a huge blow. I hope that George Street Traders as well as taskforce can come together to try to salvage 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Last week @KevinStewartSNP published a letter calling for a taskforce, following our meeting with John Lewis. City Council were copied in. Council went ahead with this taskforce meeting & excluded us... now they're writing to us to see what we can do to help?! 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

I’m confused, is 15,000 more or less than the total current Scottish Tory membership? 😇 — PolitiTweet.org

Welcome!! — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@JimLovesLemons @AlynSmith Hah! I had totally forgotten that. We were both fairly baffled by that exchange. He was shocked the SNP could be so openly pro immigration and I was shocked the Tories could be so openly xenophobic. Definitely two very different ethoses. — PolitiTweet.org

@nuntonhills @AngelaJIndyNow @AlbaParty He’s less popular than Boris Johnson and we know how unpopular Johnson is. — PolitiTweet.org

@canneistired @AngelaJIndyNow In the North east we had ALL the constituency seats and picked up a list seat. Look at the results. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@JamesKelly Many of the pro Indy folk who want to split their vote won’t be able to support Alba because of the misogyny. Both votes SNP is the only way to get that majority. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@JamesKelly Salmond is less popular in Scotland than Johnson. Press conference was a train wreck of folk asking about sleaze. Whereas the First Minister is actually popular with fantastic ratings. — PolitiTweet.org

@Eleanor_Beee In 2011? — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@AngelaJIndyNow Have a look at the results in 2011. The only way we got a majority is through both votes snp. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@JamesKelly Or anyone else who’s standing on a pro Indy ticket. Remember how well Rise did? Or Change UK? — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@MoFloMoJo @Jim35561298 Likewise we only did so well in 2011 because we got both votes. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

If you want an independence referendum, vote SNP for both constituency and regional votes. If you want to split the vote and ensure more unionists get elected, then do something else. — PolitiTweet.org

The proposal for a task force has my full backing. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@PregnantScrewed @RoisinMartin14 @rachel__julia @leftist_rage Totally agree with you about pregnant women being sacked, by the way. It’s unforgivable and we need to do more to ensure companies cannot get away with it. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@PregnantScrewed @RoisinMartin14 @rachel__julia @leftist_rage I’d be really keen to chat to you about this. Is it the case that women who adopt don’t face the same motherhood gap as women who have their child following pregnancy? — PolitiTweet.org
