Remembering when I met John on results day back in 2020. The sting felt when he asked if I was proud of my results moments after finding out I’d been downgraded based not on performance but on the fact my school was expected to have low attainment due to it being a deprived area
The SNP has failed young Scots - and John Swinney has been at the heart of that failure. Vote for change on May 7.

The SNP have held you back for twenty years; give us five and we’ll build a better future for all of Scotland’s young people.

Scottish Labour will fix the NHS, make life more affordable and give every child the chance to succeed. This is the change Scotland needs. #BBCDN

Anas Sarwar making it clear that fixing the NHS is our number one priority, we’re the only party who’ll back the nurses and drs on the front line and introduce key technology that means we lag behind the rest of the UK #bbcdn

John Swinney should be embarrassed by his shameful record, not standing there bragging about it. Does anyone really feel like they are better off under the SNP? #bbcdn

Ian held the Scottish Labour Party together, quite literally single-handedly. He is a titan of Scottish politics, with lots more still to contribute. Every Scottish Labour MP owes their seat (and much else besides) to Ian.

Since I was elected, Sarah has supported me like a big sister — always kind, wise, and generous with her time. A true team player who’ll be deeply missed when she steps down. Wishing her all the very best for the future. #ThankYouSarah #ScottishLabour #Holyrood2026

Lovely to welcome @DavyRussell4HLS MSP, our new colleague, to the Scottish Parliament today. He will be an outstanding champion for his community and I can't wait to start working with him.

This Labour government is committed to devolution. Over the next 3 yrs, it will provide an extra £9.1BN for Scottish public services - the biggest settlement since devolution began. The SNP must now step up and invest in our NHS, police, housing & schools. No excuses.

…this massive investment in Scotland’s capital rather than trying to manufacture grievance for once? Thanks to Edinburgh having a voice at the heart of Government, we’ve been able to unlock massive investment in our city. Something to welcome!

Oh lord, get a grip @AngusRobertson! Edinburgh Labour MPs have worked our socks off to secure this for Edinburgh (while you’ve… done a few tweets?) I get @theSNP think politics is all performative, but it’s actually about delivering for communities. So let’s celebrate… (1/2)
Replying to @AngusRobertson
As the Edinburgh Central constituency MSP for Edinburgh University I have been calling since last year for a UK govt u-turn on their decision to cut support for an Exascale supercomputer. Labour MPs were silent.

Truly phenomenal decision. They say data is the new oil, and Edinburgh is at the cutting edge of innovation. But this massive decision, that we’ll be home to the UK’s supercomputer, will turbo-charge for innovation and growth. Brilliant for Edinburgh, brilliant for Scotland.
