.@MhairiBlack: "The DPM said it was his duty to furnish people with 'the facts that are available' in regards to Brexit.

Brexit Britain faces higher food prices, a lack of workers, a shrinking economy & a decline in living standards. Why is he happy to ignore those facts?" #PMQs Image
.@MhairiBlack: "The only thing more deluded than that defence of Brexit, is Labour's support for it.

Just today, the world's fourth largest car manufacturer said Brexit was 'a threat to our export business and the sustainability of our of UK manufacturing options'." #PMQs
.@MhairiBlack: "Even Nigel Farage can admit Brexit has failed, so Mr Speaker, why can't the Deputy Prime Minister?" #PMQs
👇 Fact Check for the Tories.

📉 The UK is the only G7 economy forecast to shrink in 2023. #PMQs theguardian.com/business/2023/…
.@GavNewlandsSNP: "People are stuggling to pay their bills and put food on the table.

Food prices have risen by over 19% in the last year, with the cheapest infant formula up over 45%.#PMQs Image
.@GavNewlandsSNP: "Gas prices are up 129%, electricity up 67%, the OBR says £100m has been lost to the economy and wages falling further behind basic living expenses.

Does the DPM really still believe his Govt's kamikaze Brexit is delivering for the people of these isles?" #PMQs
.@TommySheppard: "It's an open secret that many Tories wish to roll back the democratic gains of devolution - either in part or completely.

Lord Frost, the architect of the disastrous Brexit agreement and now seeking a safe Tory seat, recently let the cat out of the bag." #PMQs Image
.@TommySheppard: "He said the UK government should review and rollback some devolved powers. Does the Deputy Prime Minister agree with him?" #PMQs

📉 Brexit is making us poorer - from rising food prices, to the UK economy being the worst hit of all major economies.

🤷 The evidence is so clear, that even Nigel Farage now thinks Brexit is a failure.

🧵 Why won't Keir Starmer admit it too? A thread:

snp.org/brexit-makes-p…
📣 Keir Starmer is now more of a Brexit supporter than Nigel Farage.

📉 Despite the clear economic damage of Brexit, with the poorest in society bearing the worst brunt, Labour are in denial of this reality.

👇 Let's have a closer look at the impacts. Image
👷 UK workers have suffered the longest and deepest wage squeeze in decades, and the slowest wage growth in the G7.

🔎 This is largely driven by UK wages falling behind inflation – which has been significantly increased as a result of Brexit. Image

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 We're determined to ensure that no child grows up in poverty anywhere in Scotland.

✂️ While Tory cuts and Brexit push families into poverty, we’re working hard to tackle it.

🧵 Here's a thread on just some of the bold actions we're taking.

snp.org/heres-how-the-…
🤝 We've introduced the Scottish Child Payment, which the Child Poverty Action group called a "game-changer" in our fight against child poverty.

📈 Last year, we've raised by 150%, to £25 per child per week, and extended the payment to all eligible under 16s. The Scottish Child Payment ...
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 The Scottish Child Payment is the most ambitious anti-poverty measure in the UK, and Scotland is the only part of the UK where this additional support payment is available.

👇 It's a tale of two governments on two fundamentally different paths. Image

.@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

.@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
