.@StephenFlynnSNP: "Can I ask the Prime Minister to outline the safe and legal route available to a child refugee seeking to flee Sudan and come to the United Kingdom?" #PMQs Image
.@StephenFlynnSNP: "To be clear, Mr Speaker, children in Sudan are already dying.

Now whether it's a Tory slogan to "Stop the Boats" or a Labour slogan to 'Stop Small Boats' - we need some more humanity in this debate. Rather than a race to the bottom." #PMQs Image
.@StephenFlynnSNP: "So can I ask the Prime Minister, now that he has confirmed that there is no safe and legal route.

Will he therefore confirm that it would be his government's intention to detain and deport a child refugee who flees Sudan and comes to the UK?" #PMQs
🛑 The UK government's toxic anti-refugee and anti-immigration politics are not in our name.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland is proud to be a welcoming country - and there's no place for the Tory hostile environment here. #PMQs Image
.@AngelaCrawley30: "Everyday I meet with constituents struggling to make ends meet, food banks struggling with the demand, and businesses and households struggling with energy bills." #PMQs Image
.@AngelaCrawley30: "As the cost of living crisis continues, the BoE is expected to raise interest rates, which will only hurt the poorest.

After 13 years of Tory Govt, does the PM agree with the BoE’s Chief Economist that we should all 'just accept being poorer?'" #PMQs
.@PeterGrantMP: "After an investigation ordered by the Prime Minister himself a senior Tory MP was found guilty of “bullying” and of behaviour that was “persistently aggressive” and “intimidating”. The MP in question is now blaming his victims." #PMQs Image
.@PeterGrantMP: "A string of Tory MPs have lined up to say this kind of conduct is not just acceptable but good management practice.

What does it say about the Prime Minister’s values that he has done nothing to distance himself from these statements?" #PMQs

.@StephenFlynnSNP: "What worries the Prime Minister most about Brexit right now?

Is it the likely 4% hit to UK productivity or the 3 former Tory leaders planning to vote down his deal this afternoon?" #PMQs
.@StephenFlynnSNP: "The reality is, that whilst Westminster is once again consumed by the damage being caused by Brexit.

The public are facing the biggest fall in living standards, ever. The highest tax burden since the end of the Second World War and inflation at 10.4%." #PMQs
.@StephenFlynnSNP: "When are the Conservative Party, and indeed the Labour Party, going to realise that Brexit can't work?" #PMQs

.@StephenFlynnSNP: "Thanks to positive and proactive negotiations between the Scottish Government and Unison and Unite health unions, a pay settlement has been reached and strike action averted.

In complete contrast, the UK Health Sec appears unwilling to negotiate." #PMQs

⏰ Tune in now on scottishparliament.tv Nicola Sturgeon
@NicolaSturgeon 📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "Notwithstanding the challenges that our NHS is facing, A&E units in Scotland are the best performing anywhere in the UK.

And delayed discharges, while far too high, are lower than in England and Wales." #FMQs Image
@NicolaSturgeon 📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "In Scotland, there are more GPs per 100,000 population than in the rest of the UK.

If Douglas Ross is saying that our NHS challenges are all because of the SNP, he has to recognise our relative performance compared to other parts of the UK." #FMQs Image
