Energy bills are already too high - yet under Labour, they’re going up again. They promised lower bills, but today’s hike means bills are £187 higher since they took office. In energy-rich Scotland, this is indefensible. Only independence can deliver lower bills for good.

Always a joy to visit the sunny North East of Scotland. 🌞 As I travel around Scotland, I see first hand the great potential of our people and economy, but also how we’re held back by Brexit and damaging Westminster policies. The real change we need is independence.


So sorry to hear that the @ScotParl is to lose one of our brightest stars. All reasonable people will understand Kate’s reasons but as her deputy in the economy team I know first hand just how talented she is & what a huge asset she is for our movement. A big loss for Holyrood.

After careful thought over recess, I’ve decided not to seek re-election to @scotparl next year. I’ve written to the First Minister this morning 👇🏽 I will continue to serve the First Minister, the Government and my constituents to the best of my ability until May 2026.

My letter to UK Gov Minister Steve Reed asking him to retract his false statements about the condition of water in Scotland. IWC was able to report we’re in a much better position than rUk with 87% “high” or “good” status. Public ownership works. scottishgov-newsroom.prgloo.com/correspondence…

If Keir Starmer believes in a respectful relationship with @scotgov, he needs his Environment Secretary to retract his totally inaccurate comments about Scotland’s water. Our rivers are cleaner, our bills are lower - and public ownership delivers for people, not profit. 👇
