A clip from my speech last Wednesday. We are proud of our diverse communities who chose to make Scotland their home.
And unlike Labour, the SNP will never imitate Nigel Farage. We will confront him, and we will defeat him.

What have immigrants ever done for us?
Coming to our country...creating jobs, staffing the NHS, winning Olympic gold medals, adding £bns to our economy.
When will Labour learn that you can not out-Farage, Nigel Farage?
Labour should stop punching down and start growing up.

Micromoments are
powerful & therapeutic.This
promotes emotional currency. It
develops pupils &
guides pupils.
Micromanagement fosters.
I don't trust you.
Fosters stress, creates anxiety,
doesn't solve behaviour issues,
& creates a breakdown in pupil & staff relationships.

Relational approaches are not about being a pupils best friend but the small everyday moments. Connection. Sincere compliments.Acts of kindness. Genuine check-in. Showing up in ways that matter. Remembering the little details.These moments are powerful & therapeutic. 🧠🌱

Behaviourst approaches focus on control & authoritarian practices are not best served while addressing children suffering from complex trauma.This requires helping them feel safe & supported. Adults who can teach & model regulatory skills in a more flexible
less punitive way🧠🌱

Elon Musk needs to be stopped.
After he fanned the flames of racial division in the UK last summer, I warned that he was one of the most dangerous men on the planet.
Armed with billions and driven by hatred, it is time we confront Musk's hateful rhetoric, not pander to it.

I joined Twitter 14 years ago. I was initially drawn to the platform and stayed for the sense of community. However, today I believe this platform provides no real value and is, in fact, a detriment to public well-being. It is systematically eroding our bonds of community at every turn. Therefore, I will no longer be posting any comments or updates here. You can find me on LinkedIn, and I hope to continue connecting with you there. Love you all, Cormac & @NurtureDev

Helping children heal from trauma requires a bottom-up approach.They are developmentally stuck in the brainstem with very little accessing higher brain functions.Working on emotional memories while helping them explore dysregulated feelings & regulate the nervous system🧠🌱

I am not leaving x/twitter, I am a left-wing libertarian. I have always believed the best way to win a debate is with a better argument. – at Ayr, Scotland
