Joined June 2015
I remain wholly supportive of @JohnSwinney and I look forward to campaigning for @theSNP at the next.election, to lead Scotland to independence.
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.
