Holyrood is Back in Business
The Scottish Parliament went back to Holyrood last week for the final session before the elections in 2026.
Following the Holyrood debate on Palestine and his very welcome decision to stop giving public money to companies helping to arm Israel in the commission of a genocide, First Minister John Swinney began today with a speech announcing the publication of the new Scotgov paper "Your Right to Decide"
This was followed by the first FMQs of the new term.
