Labels and language are so important. Time for some priceless economics and a re-think from policy-makers and economists. What to do @sarah_bee13 @ruthpatrick0 @tartan1314 @TSIScotNet ??
I am "economically inactive" and have been for many years. During this time I have been - Caring for my Mum. - Managing my multiple disabilities. - Spending a high percentage of my income, which means I pay VAT and fuel tax. - Volunteering when able for multiple organisations.

Inclusion Scotland's CEO, Heather Fisken, shares: "Yes we will still work with @scotgov but we cannot endorse this plan as it stands" in regards to the #DisabilityEqualityPlan. We are uniting with @DEScotTweets and @GDA__online to #DemandJustice. #DisabledPeopleDemandJustice
How can we persuade @scotgov and @10DowningStreet to make the fundamental mind shift that will build a society free from the injustice of poverty? Join our annual conference to explore #MakingChangeHappen together. tfaforms.com/5142796
A question for the panel during their visit to Glasgow - you may or may not agree that Scotland becoming independent is a good idea, but why do you think the idea inspired so many people, and what could Westminster do to persuade more Scots to support the status quo #TRIPLIVE
Good evening! As two Modern Studies and Politics secondary teachers, we would love to know your funniest inside stories into the world of politics to tell our classes on Monday morning. Dish the dirt!! 😉 From Erin and Kirsten 🎉 #TRIPLive

Short thread on this story: The PM has to be so careful with what he's saying here. The "work first" approach of his predecessors has failed. Poverty has not fallen while employment has risen. We need compassion in the system, not stigma 1/6 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

🎗️ Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. Never has it been more important to use the word suicide. Talking about suicide reduces the risk. It might not be an easy conversation, but if you are worried about a friend or loved one ask them. "Are you thinking about suicide?" 🔄

Scotland faces a fiscal crisis and the £500m in cuts will undermine policy ambition. We cannot cut our way to a fairer, greener, more prosperous economy. We need to harness redistributive revenue-raising measures. Our co-director @MiriamBrett with @STVColin on @ScotlandTonight.
I went to the Clydebuilt Festival for @TheScotsman. Weather was ace and it was mobbed. The Govan-Partick bridge was a hit. Top day.
