After a rejection, even a considered kind one, comes the will to improve & try again, the inevitable depression during which you must keep balance and faith – being a poet is a constant negotiation with equilibrium, keeping a core of self belief so one day the next good poem will come out of nowhere

A re-elected SNP government will protect free prescriptions, free eye tests, free tuition, free bus travel, lower Council Tax, free school meals, the Baby Box and funded childcare, while going further to help families with the cost of living.
Make it #BothVotesSNP tomorrow.

15 years ago, we made prescriptions free in Scotland - while people south of the border pay £9.90 an item.
For as long as the SNP is in government, we will always protect free prescriptions. On May 7th, vote SNP.
