Scottish Parliament: Diversity (18 Mar 2015)

Bruce Crawford: ...on the lives of others in our own society, as well as on other cultures and societies around the world. Every one of us in this chamber is different and has had different life experiences; those experiences make us the people we are. Celebrating our differences as well as our common interests helps to unite us all as the people of Scotland. Within my constituency of Stirling, we have...

Immigration and Social Security Co-Ordination (EU Withdrawal) Bill (28 Jan 2019)

Performance-enhancing Drugs and Body Image — [David Mundell in the Chair] (21 Feb 2023)

Sarah Jones: ...reason. The hon. Member made the point that sometimes some of these men talk sense and sound like they are all about empowering men, but on the other hand they are being incredibly misogynistic and spreading awful mistruths. That is very true; I see it time and again. This is an important conversation to have, and there is a wider conversation about the role that we can all play in...
