@Hairyloon We haven’t published our manifesto for the first elections to an Independent Scottish Parliament yet. I expect we’ll wait till after Scotland votes next year to establish it. — PolitiTweet.org

Yet another #PostOffice in Glenrothes threatened with closure. UK Gov needs to fund the service properly to make it a viable proposition for shop owners to sign up as postmistresses / masters. https://t.co/Q99jy22PNz — PolitiTweet.org

@PARLYapp @Jacob_Rees_Mogg Is that the training that says you defend people who have been found guilty of bullying and harassment? Or is it only government ministers who go on that course? — PolitiTweet.org

@sidmas88 @HMATimCole @bbclaurak Oh, and all that “extra” aid money to help global covid vaccination programmes etc? That’s already included in the reduced budget. There’s not a single penny of covid-19 funding anywhere in the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office budget. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Grant MP @PeterGrantMP

@sidmas88 @HMATimCole @bbclaurak Legal requirement on UK aid budget is based on a % of “national income”. It was going to fall anyway in cash terms because of the economic impact of covid. Chancellor has announced he will cut it even further so he’s deliberately making covid hit the world’s poorest hardest. — PolitiTweet.org

@JWils60 @PARLYapp For example this allows us to take account of the risks inherent in travelling and the fact that social distancing in Parliament would be impossible if even half of us turned up at once. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Grant MP @PeterGrantMP

@JWils60 @PARLYapp Most MPs would support the same rules that already apply to remote participation in question and answer sessions. MP makes a declaration the Speaker that they are not travelling due to medical or public health reasons connected to covid. — PolitiTweet.org

@PARLYapp No, it’s only for MPs who have a medical certificate of their vulnerability and who are prepared to put that fact on the public record. A medical certificate that their GP is probably under no obligation to provide. — PolitiTweet.org

Alternatively Ruth could have said giving a small fraction of our wealth to help the world’s poorest people is morally the right thing to do without using it to make other governments like us. — PolitiTweet.org
