I thank the member for taking an intervention. He mentions self-awareness. In many of the conversations that we have had on doorsteps, people have said that their concerns about politicians are that they are very un-self-aware; that they come to the chamber and just shout at o...

I will do.In its briefing, openDemocracy sets out some helpful steps that we can take to restore trust. It asks us to include honesty, explain the reasons behind decisions, be respectful and put the public interest first. Democracy matters. Trust matters. I hope that we can sp...

Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer.We should be focusing on how we make Scotland work for everyone. Opposition MSPs and SNP back benchers actually have the same job. We all need to roll up our sleeves, get stuck in and work across parties. Yes, we should all challenge the Sco...

That is the main cause of the loss of trust in politics, which we should all care about, because a loss of trust causes a loss of participation, and, if the people do not participate, democracy will fail. There might be those—particularly on the populist right—who want that ou...

No, I will make progress.Those parties did not listen or come up with plans to make lives better. They thought that they could just bandy around words like “secretive” and “dishonesty” and that that would somehow damage the SNP. We can see how that went for them.

I can honestly say that the behaviour in this chamber is astonishing. I came from a council, and I thought that it was rowdy in council chambers. In this chamber, we are making decisions about people’s lives and I find this behaviour embarrassing.

I was not sure whether the member was just heckling or seeking to make an intervention. He never showed up on the screen, so I assumed that it was not an intervention. I will continue if that is the case.

The member tries to distract from the fact that her Government immediately took clothes, travel and tickets, left, right and centre. Labour promised to make society fairer, but then it failed to tax billionaires and instead created a tax on jobs.

The irony—the absolute irony—of Labour lodging this motion on public trust. Two years ago, people in Scotland voted Labour. They voted for the promise of change, and what did they get? More of the same—only worse, actually. That is what erodes public trust. Promising to protec...

Campbell, Kate SNP Edinburgh Eastern, Musselburgh and Tranent Watch on SPTV

A barrier to reporting for many people is that they may be asked to make a statement to back up any photographic evidence that they have provided, and they might need to give evidence in court against their neighbours. Will the cabinet secretary support exploring a model of third-party reporting sites with the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities and agencies such as the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency to enable people to provide evidence and report antisocial behaviour anonymously, and will she meet me to discuss that?
