- Scottish Conservative leader Douglas Ross said the First Minister’s statement confirms he is the “ultimate continuity candidate”.
John Swinney has promised to publish a revised tax strategy for Scots within weeks, as he told MSPs he wants to bring parties at Holyrood together “to make our country better”.
The First Minister set out his priorities for Government after taking on the top job in Scottish politics earlier this month, saying “practical steps” will be taken in each of these areas.
He also announced the Programme for Government - in which ministers set out their plans for the coming year - will take place before Holyrood breaks for its summer recess at the end of June.
Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar said the First Minister should “change the approach he has taken in the last 17 years which has left every Scottish institution weaker than he found it”.

On July 4th the SNP will wake up and find out what the Scottish people think of them.
And I can’t wait.
Yes hopefully
Scotland’s citizens want to be governed by an independent Scottish government, after over 100years of Westminster control leaves Scottish citizens fighting for food at food banks, fighting councils for better and more social housing and many more civic services,
We can do better.
@@jackmartin4472 so isn't the SNP accountable for all that turmoil? Because last i remember Scotland has a government that is in control of all that.
@@joemanton2340 I right Westminster have complete control, All devolved governments powers have to be rubber stamped by Westminster, just like our resources going into the treasury and peanuts coming back to them. How would you like if I took your wages gave you back what I thought you deserved. 🏴
And on the 5th of July they will be doon the Buroo.
SNP zzzzzzzzzzzz you have had 17 years and still you can only blame Westminster….change the record it’s getting old.
Antique!
I am 71 years old I have never known such a lousy government in Scotland, I bet I am not alone!
They couldn’t do that if Scotland had independence!
Lib Dem, Labour or Tories. Any of them is better than the SNP.
Weak pathetic and underwhelming,sums up the last 17 years of the SNP,changes are coming
The same old swinney talking a load of rubbish. He has been at the top of the snp for years and done not one good thing except maybe crawling to sturgeon.
1, Free prescriptions.
There was always free prescriptions for those who couldn’t pay for them, they just extended free prescriptions to those who could afford them
@@johnrea2115 correct an other waste of public funds.
Couldnae run a bath.
I cannot disagree with Douglas Ross, but Douglas what about all of the bikes laptops, phones I could go on, in fact I will, wheres all of the lost money, £600,000,plus plus plus, they took it, they used at least a portion to line their own pockets, where's all the funds put aside for independance (I am first and foremost a unionist) Where's the money ring fenced for farmers, where's all the money which was given to SNP by the Barnet consequencials that was supposed to go to councils did they get it no they did not. They are criminals, child abusers and slime.
…..and the £2 billion given by Westminster during the pandemic to aid small businesses . Not a trace of it .
@@georgemorrison9280 precisely George.
Where’s the funding farmers used to get from the EUROPEAN UNION? Oh yes I remember, Scotland was dragged of the EU,by Westminster Conservatives.
Westminster gave money to the snp for farmers and they did not pass it on just like the covid money for businesses .
Well said Douglas Ross, we need to vote them out no ifs no buts the SNP have had so much time to get things right only to get them so wrong! It is ridiculous how biased the Presiding officer is when anyone but the SNP is talking!
I agree, the PO is quite full of herself
💯
Well she is a green and under the SNPs thumb
Was waiting for it's Westminsters fault. Not disappointed 😂
He is still defending his part in the destruction of Scotland. An apology would be good and saying we got it wrong and we will learn from our mistakes!!!
What a circus 🤡 John is
The P.O. is a total waste of space .
I'm a pensioner and thanks to Scottish Tax Laws I paid £300 more Tax on my meagre private pension.... Thank you SNP
Ditto
Can we get the money back Humza gave to Gaza?
Goodness. Each SNP leader more dour than the last. He seems like he would fly off the handle behind closed doors, but as a public speaker he is amongst the worst I've seen, and he sucks all the personality (what little there was in there in the first place) out of the room.
🎯
J K Rowling based her Dementers on honest John.!!!
@@edwardcampbell7513😂
First Minister training manual, ''pretend you are signing documents when they have you on the ropes'' 😂😂😂
Imagine seeing drug and alcohol deaths go through the roof and thinking your party should be celebrated regardless.
It is imperative for true Scottish individuals to rise up and work towards the unification of our cherished nation, with a primary focus on preserving our family values.
Holyrood needs an input of morals, truth and integrity from the Scottish Family Party.
Arrest everyone in that house immediately!!!!
Why is Harvie still able to wear a rainbow lanyard?
Totally agree I thought they weren’t allowed to do this anymore
@@Invernaewhere he’s ‘special’.
Do you not mean he’s got special needs Susan
To avoid any confusion, I meant Greer.
@@SuperKanonier Is it the gay parade in the parliament.
Just another liar.
We can’t afford to give people new hips to get back to work. We’re is their right to recovery.
Swinney is yesterdays man, and Fall Guy2.
Same old drags you down
Let’s have a list of constituencies and who we should vote for tactically to get these SNP clowns out.
It’s just a talking shop, great wages just to slaver pish ?
Every time I hear a politician say that today's results are the best on record, I want to ask 'Who's keeping the records?'
Swinehunt stutters and Starmers 😵💫quite a lot. Bring back Dumza.,...only joking!
John Swinney, the Grey Man.............Noun. gray man (plural gray men) An average, forgettable man who does not draw attention or stand out in a crowd.
It's time up for the SNP.
Whatever your political position it's imperative that the cranks in charge of the SNP are removed from power wherever that might be.
Come the general election your family needs you to get them out
Is this the same Westminster that keeps bailing Scotland out
Well done Douglas taking these criminals to task.
Bloody unbelievable,.
Swinney says more moneyspent on the Scottish NHS.
If that's the case, why is NHS Fife having to make savings of over 25 million pounds.
The tax is a bloody lie. My wife is on bellow average wage and had to pay an additional £1500 in tax from her pension fund to pay for a new hip. SNP and green lies.
Hi, you misspelled “government”.
Presiding Officer still showing her preference to the SNP. Perhaps we should send her to Rwanda !
When Douglas (cant remember i had a second job) Dross makes you look bad... You've got problems... Scotland is rudderless...
The Green's policies are absurd. Cut cars down a little says Harvey and buy your oil from abroad but not Scotland.
Oh wait a minute, whats that round his neck. Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with the environment. 🤔
Maybe honest John should try Daz or Fairy on that shirt because whichever soap powder he’s using just isn’t working.
Can I appeal to all those voters in the Aberdeen South constituency to make getting rid of Stephen Flynn your priority in the upcoming election. The only party that can oust the SNP are the conservatives who came a close second in the last general election. Labour were a distant third. Unfortunately , voting for Reform will only serve to split the vote and Flynn will get back in. Please hold your nose and vote Conservative, that way we can at least get Flynn out. Thank you.
The reason for all of the disasters Ross speaks of is simply because the country is divided for so many years. All down to the snp.
The puplic had to come up with solutions, for drug deaths in scotland, the snp have thousand of family's to answer to
Please, please vote this incompetent government out. The SNP have and continue to destroy this once proud country. Education, Health and Justice to name but a few are collapsing all because of the policies put in place by these inept politicians. Bring on the general election and hopefully bring forward the Scottish elections so that we can at last show the SNP what we the people of Scotland think about their disastrous time in office.
The Scottish parliament should be shut down
Such pathetic leaders of the SNP.What have they done with all the millions they got.Ferries should have cost ,96 millions ended up costing ,300 millions.of course Westminister is to blame how pathetic that all you hear
More lies, get them out.
Time for change let’s have Scotland’s Independence on July the fourth.😊
Swinney is getting binned by the SNP on the 5th of July.
Hope so
You just knew that Swinney would come out with the same excuses voiced by his two predecessors, namely one or more of the following; Nasty Tories, Nasty Whitehall, Nasty Boris, Nasty Sunak, Nasty Brexit and Nasty Covid. Blame, blame, blame but the continued refusal to look at their own inadequate performance and poor record
Exactly
Snp are over for good
Swinney is a clown
Is he having a laugh 😂😂😂
They keep referring to Scotland GE for 2026 so is it 2026 or the 4th of July. Or is Scotland different from England because I believe we're still part of the UK right now please tell it's the 4th of July....
Unfortunately the Local Scottish parliament elections don’t take place until 2026, we do have the opportunity to vote out the SNP UK Parliament representative MPs on the 4th July as part of the general election, can’t wait 😁
@@Diana-007 Thankyou for your reply Diana it's appreciated and I can't wait also thankyou...
Is Westminster the only word he knows
Vote independence the SNP can only do with what money they get from west minster stop bickering and get on with putting Scotland right bring on independence
The Tories and The Toxic Murdoch Sun are not, have never been and never will be all sides.
Ha ha dafty dougy😂😂😂
👿👿👿👿👿
🥱
Sunaks puppet Ross is like Starmers puppet Sarwar, nothing positive or remotely original to contribute to the Scottish parliament.
John Swinney is a cure for insommnia
