Social security is a human right – fundamental support that any of us could need at any time in our lives.Good being out and about in the constituency today, talking with constituents at surgeries and meetings.😊☀️😷 #HereToHelp
I have decided to undertake my monthly surgeries tomorrow - it’s an important part of our democracy that politicians are accessible and we must not let terrorists change this. As usual, strict covid-19 and security safety measures will apply. I will be at Fresh Start between 9:30-10:30 and the Prentice Centre between 11:00-12:00. #HereToHelp
Quite right Ben - on all counts. Thank you for all you do as an elected representative. 🙏

I wish there had been allowances like that in England
In no way can today’s #UniversalCredit cut be reasonably or morally justified.
We will remember who didn’t speak up - the Scottish Conservatives.
We will remember that a Tory UKG, that Scotland never voted for, wilfully punished those less fortunate, at this most difficult of times.
So true, the increase made such a positive difference. However what about those on 'legacy benefits' who got nothing to see them through the pandemic like my family.
Great man. Great speach
Well said, Ben!
Well said Ben! Well said great speech
Well said Ben Macpherson MSP
Ben Macpherson MSP why did people on ESA in Scotland not receive the same payment? I was put on Esa when I had to give up work.
Good to meet with constituents at my help and advice surgeries this morning, at Fresh Start and the Prentice Centre. My next set of north Edinburgh surgeries will be on 5 November (1st Friday of every month) but please email or call any time for assistance, or to arrange phone or video call meeting.
Ben, you're doing an excellent job! Keep at it.
I support you but think it's fair I ask you some of the questions I've asked your Tory colleague DRoss. What plans do the SNP have to deal with the issues the hospitality industry are facing now the European staff have left? 2) What plans do you have to kick start the economy in Scotland? 3) What steps are the SNP going to take to deal with the drug issue? 4) Social care? I know that Health and Social Care are now linked in some areas. But as a separate but close issue, Social Work has been overlooked for many years.
Today The Scottish Parliament voted (except for the Tories) to call on the UK Government to cancel their unjustifiable, nonsensical and unnecessary £20 cut to Universal Credit. Shame on them if they proceed with this. Scotland will remember who chose to needlessly remove support from the less fortunate in our society, in these challenging times.

This was the motion that parliament voted for (except the Tories): That the Parliament agrees, along with opposition parties in the UK Parliament, that the UK Government’s planned reduction to universal credit should be reversed; recognises the cross-party efforts of opposition parties in the UK Parliament and the social security committees of each of the four nations' parliaments and assembly in this aim; notes Scottish Government analysis that the reduction of universal credit could reduce welfare expenditure in Scotland by £461 million a year by 2023-24 and push 60,000 people, including 20,000 children, into poverty; agrees that the inadequacy of the payment is just one of many issues with universal credit, alongside the two-child cap and the abhorrent so-called "rape clause", the five-week wait for a first payment, the benefit sanctions regime and the so-called "bedroom tax"; believes that this reflects the UK Government’s uncompassionate approach to welfare, which has been challenged by opposition parties across the UK, and acknowledges Scotland’s human rights-based approach to social security.
Brilliant speech Ben...well done and well put! 👏
They don't care. They will do as they are told by their bosses down Westminster way. When you have in the past Tory MSPs like Jeremy Balfour advocating at Holyrood that people with a terminal illness should be re-assesed if they haven't died quick enough in his view and as mentioned the shocking rape clause, taking £20 PW from people during a pandemic, with rising food and energy prices as we head into winter means nothing to them. They care not a jot. I have always wondered when a constituent in financial trouble with rent arrears or DWP problems go into see a Tory MP/MSP, what their response and answers are to said constituents. The "We are concentrating on getting people back into work" rhetoric doesn't wash, the ending of Furlough next week is just going to compound the situation when the 'real' unemployment figures will be known when thousands of companies fold, and some people will be left to live off £74 per week when made unemployed waiting 5 weeks for a payment. They are rotten to the core and always will be the nasty party..
Well said Ben this is going to impact so many families in work poverty is at its highest
An impassioned speech Ben and bang on the money! 👍🏻
Well said Ben, powerful barnstormer of a speech.
I think the point that it puts a strain on devolved services is why this is so relevant to the motion. of course a cut like this is effects the people of Scotland and therefore potentially increases the services they require. If this was a payment to see the most vulnerable through the pandemic there is no acknowledgement of the continuing impact of the pandemic from the Tories.
Instead of using this as an opportunity to attack the Tories, why don't the SNP stick to their election pledge to end child poverty by promising to increase the money they receive? If the Tories are taking away £20 then why don't the SNP stick to their promise and pay out at least £20 themselves to make up the difference?
Wouldn't yer time be better spent discussing changes Holyrood can make, rather than changes London will not consider ?
Brilliant speech mate 👌
I already said it, that one of the consequences of Brexit would be the cuts in benefits, which would disappear, without such as the loss of thousands of jobs, and the closure of hundreds of companies due to lack of workers, and soon we will see how the nhs will be chopped up and sold to private companies, I just hope we can survive this madness
Brilliant speech Ben. Well done and very well put.
great speech Ben.
Fantastic Speaker by a strong Parliamentary Speaker. The Tories should be absolutely ashamed.
If its such a disaster why don't the Scottish government increase tax and use the devolved benefit top up powers to sort it? Or alternatively just whine about it 🤔
Very well said, Ben.
Well said Ben 👏👏
Well said Ben
Well said Ben! 👊
Brilliant Ben 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ben Macpherson MSP I felt you passion, keep up your sterling work for consistency and country

Today I chaired our latest meeting of the Seafield Waste Water Treatment Works Stakeholder Group, attended by Leith Links Community Council and Leith Links Residents Association. It was good to receive an update from Scottish Water on the ~£10 million capital investment programme, to upgrade the facility and further reduce odours. This will make a meaningful difference in the local community.
I also took the opportunity to thank the key workers at Seafield for what they do to provide an important service for the whole city.
Done.

Find out more at www.edinburgh.gov.uk/communitytesting.Covid cases are still high in Edinburgh.

Lateral flows are useless. In the last two weeks I’ve had three friends have negative lateral flows, and then follow up positive PCRs. Unacceptable failure rate when a negative latera flow gives us a sense of security to go about our business

I will ask again Ben , what is affordable housing ?
Scotland delivered 1,595 affordable homes between April and June, according to new statistics.
The Scottish Government have led the way, delivering 75% more affordable homes per head of population than England or Wales in the four years to 2019/20.
The SNP, working with partners, have now delivered 103,650 affordable homes since 2007.
We are building on this with a target to deliver another 110,000 by 2032, with at least 70% available for social rent.

Who would want to work for someone who betrayed the very people he was elected to help 🤷♀️😡😡A Traitor in a Tyrannical Government but let me remind you that you are a public servant who works for us 😡you will never get my vote again 🙃🙃🙃
Work for a political party that claims they want to have their own voice, be independent and not be governed by others. Yet have the audacity to introduce vaccine passports limiting what people can do in life/stop them doing things? Utter hypocrites!! Not to mention jagging kids with a vaccine with no long term data what it could do to them and going against the advice of scientists THEN say they can have it without parental consent?! Why you would anyone want to work for cretins like this?! What the SNP are doing is utterly despicable and will not be forgotten when it comes to the next independence vote and local elections.

For a Scottish Investment Bank investment and the sharing the develope ment, with Nordic Countries and the EU [who needs oil] , The Scottish People have not voted in a Tory government since 1955 [NINETEEN FIFTY FIVE] "Wow" 👺👹 🔍 😒📜 🔍 Since the Scottish Parliament was reconvened in 1999, The Margaret Thatcher' Community Charge, commonly known as the poll tax, was a system of taxation introduced by Mar-garet Thatcher's Tory government replacement of domestic rates, "JUST" in Scotland from 1989, the the Tories really hate the Scottish people and our awsome Parliement, that shows their "Dads Arm" approach to "ONE NATION" English Tories who took on Mr Hitler, just a pity Us Scots and the rest of our awesome Allies turned up to save their English rear ends from taking a hyde-ing. 🤨 RG was right about Church-ill

More than 108,000 children have benefited from The Scottish Government’s new Scottish Child Payment, according to the latest official statistics. The figures highlight how many families and children received the payment from introduction in February to 30 June 2021.
The £10 per week benefit, unique to Scotland, supports low-income families with children aged under six. It provides regular, additional financial support for families in receipt of qualifying benefits to assist with the costs of caring for a child. The payment will be made available to children aged 6-15 by the end of 2022. The payment will be doubled to £20 a week over this parliamentary term.

We can all still help keep the pandemic under control:
🔹 Please get fully vaccinated as this remains the single most important thing we can all do to keep each other safe.
🔹 Test yourself regularly as this makes it less likely you will spread the virus (test-for-coronavirus.service.gov.uk/order-lateral-flow-kits/condition).
🔹 Wear face coverings, increase ventilation indoors & try to avoid crowds.
🔹 Even though it is no longer the law, try to keep a safe distance from other households.
🔹 Remember to keep washing your hands & cleaning surfaces.
If everyone follows these steps then we will limit the spread of the virus, keep ourselves & our loved ones safer, & continue to maintain the progress that we have made so far.
Covid in Scotland: Daily cases surge above 6,000 in Scotland

It is the third time this week that the country has set a new record for positive tests.Nightclubs is where it is all happening I’m just over it myself it’s ridiculous not a mask in sight
Frighteningly large percentage of 20-40 year olds in the confined spaces of festival venues are not wearing masks. As you say, if we wish to avoid a return to some level of lockdown then we all need to show some civic responsibility and show some care to our fellow citizens, even if we don't think that we personally are at risk.
Mate you want to get leith under control, never mind the bloody pandemic!
Once fully operational, Social Security Scotland will make payments to 1.8 million children and adults – around a third of the population. Social security is an investment in the people of Scotland and is a fundamental human right.
Yesterday I was delighted to be shown round the Ocean Mist Leith - an amazing hotel in the making in #Leith / #Edinburgh / #Scotland. Full credit to the team there for taking on a sinking ship & turning it into something beautiful that will further add to the wonderful aesthetic of the shore area, contribute positively to our nation’s brilliant tourism offering & create jobs in the local economy. Can’t wait to see it open! ⚓️🍸
A pleasure to have the opportunity to show you around Ocean Mist
We pass this ship daily on our way to school, take walks on weekends to look at it and my son can’t wait for the day it opens. Thank you for these beautiful photos, he was over the moon to see how it looks like from the inside. 💙
I believe the same architect who designed the Fingal? If so, it will look wonderful when finished.
