00:00 - Our refinery has closed. Jobs are being lost in the North Sea. Supply chain contracts for renewables missing. All as poverty increases and services decline. And they debate this. They’re disgracing our parliament we had to fight to restore.Absolutely extraordinary scenes today in @ScotParl in which it emerged that MSPs and staff are confused about how to use the lavatory - something many nursery children manage without such tortuous introspection. Let's dive in! 🧵
00:00 - What a mess to get into. Entirely self inflictedKiller question by @lynseybews because the FM can’t ride two horses at same time arguing that he stands by the Eq Act and provision for single sex spaces while his government is in court arguing against ‘sex’ in Eq Act meaning biological sex.
