@cssbutler @jrclarkbf800 @FemaleFisherman @fishsarah I have asked the woman leading the Scottish Fishermen’s Federation @sff_uk to amend their own name to Scottish Fishers Federation in order to attract more women to the industry.
What’s not to like?

RT @Feorlean: Disingenuous twaddle. You aided and abetted #Brexit and by so doing made the global crisis much worse for those who live in Scotland, Wales and England. Own it for a change . .

We live under inhumane, xenophobic and despicable Tory policies implementing an hostile environment towards migrants, refugees and asylum seekers.

RT @alexandrabulat: Dear @michaelgove,
I would like to remind you once again that it was you, alongside @BorisJohnson and @pritipatel who promised EU migrants will “automatically be granted indefinite leave to remain” in the 2016 Brexit campaign…
& then people had to apply to stay in their homes.

@phx1138 @LauraEWebsterr @olafdoesstuff @ScotParl The general public voted for it, it was in our manifesto and we convinced all other political parties except one to vote with us @ScotParl
It is in fact in line with a great British tradition to include non British folk to have the right to vote in the UK.

@phx1138 @LauraEWebsterr @olafdoesstuff @ScotParl Then you have a mountain to climb:

@tombobc @LauraEWebsterr @olafdoesstuff That’s for the people of England to decide. Here in Scotland, we decided who could vote and who could be a candidate:
