“Nigel Farage is a performer, a con artist. He will say or do anything. He will happily dance to a populist tune regardless of its impact. Let’s not forget he’s bankrolled by fossil fuel interests, climate deniers, and major polluters—taking in £2.3 million since the 2019 election.

I’m calling on the Prime Minister to take this morally reprehensible suggestion off the negotiating table. The very idea that he would cut tax obligations for some of the biggest companies in the world, controlled by some of the very richest people in the world, in an effort to appease President Trump is an insult to each and every person struggling to get by at the moment.

"Patrick's legacy goes well beyond being the longest-serving political leader in the UK, or even being the leader who took Greens into government for the first time in the UK. His legacy will be marked every time a young person gets on public transport free of charge; with every renter who is able to keep a roof over their heads because of protections that Patrick secured; and with every kilowatt of clean renewable power that Scotland produces because of Green policies. These are real achievements to be proud of. A legacy offering real hope for Scotland."

"Labour's recent leaflet boasting about deporting more people than the Tories is sickening. "Labour are failing to provide safe and legal routes into the UK while seemingly revelling in turning people's lives upside down. "Any claim the Labour Party may have once had to be a party of compassion or principle has well and truly gone."
