My apologies to @EzraWilsonMSYP - I misunderstood part of your motion. I was delighted to support it. #SYP68

Just on my way to #SYP68. Have been following on social media and been so impressed with the positivity and energy from @OfficialSYP MSYPs over the last couple of days. Looking forward to seeing it in person. – at Edinburgh, Scotland

Note to the cynics: cops on duty outside Holyrood parliament tell me ‘if only every demonstration was this well organised and good natured we’d be happy’ #SchoolsStrike4Climate #FridaysForFurture

Scottish Youth Parliament member Kit McCarthy, who has autism, said for him the effect of the noise emitted is “horrific”.

The Scottish Youth Parliament wants the devices, that are used to deter anti-social behaviour among young people, banned.

Successes in @ScotParl today: They will assist SYP by referencing Ireland's Ministry of Justice position that mosquito devices constitute "assault", and the views of @coe and @UNHumanRights, when they write to @scotgov about our campaign! Well done @KitMSYP 👏

🗣️ "Anti-social behaviour is not a justification for the use of the mosquito device which breaches 4 separate rights under the European Convention. SYP favours a mature response to anti-social behaviour including improved youth work and improved community policing" 👏 @KitMSYP

Anti-loitering devices called mosquitoes should be banned according to @OfficialSYP
Members taking a petition to Holyrood. The devices emit high pitched sound only heard by under 25s. It's claimed they discriminate against teenagers and young adults.

Proposed by MSYPs @AmyLeeMSYP and @KitMSYP, getting rid of these horrible devices is essential for protecting young people's rights. I urge you to sign this petition and share it with your followers - the deadline to sign is this Thursday!
