📢 I'm proud to have launched my proposed Youth Work Bill at @CitadelYCLeith. This transformative Bill aims to make youth work a cornerstone of every young person’s life in Scotland. My consultation is now live: https://t.co/phX220LIjA Take part and make your voice heard.

@ScottishLabour @_MWhitfield Colleges give youngster and some more mature students the hands on skills they need to get into work, once you get get a start you gain experience and it’s easier to move up the labour ladder. Asking questions and making mistakes helps you learn

Scotland’s colleges play a crucial role in our communities and our economy, but years of neglect from the SNP have pushed them to crisis point, robbed Scots of opportunities and hindered businesses.

The SNP has cut colleges to the bone and robbed young people of opportunities. Scotland deserves better. https://t.co/qq3rhDLuI2

Great session in Penicuik with @kirstyjmcneill and @BarrieCunning! Big concerns on NHS waits, lack of investment, and the state of our roads. @ScottishLabour and @AnasSarwar will do everything it takes to fix this if we win Holyrood in 6 months.

Scotland cannot keep footing the bill for SNP failure.

👏

Police Scotland is stretched to breaking point under the SNP.

I’ve got straight to work with @Keir_Starmer to discuss how we will work closely together to defeat the forces of division and hate, and to reunite the country.

Our people. Our movement. When working people unite, change happens. #WeDemandBetter #ScotlandDemandsBetter

Sharing food, not hate. 🤝🏽

Congratulations @LucyMPowell on your victory! I know you’ll be a fantastic deputy leader of UK Labour. I look forward to working with you to deliver the new direction that Scotland needs.

Great morning in Scotstoun with our @AnnieslandLab team. Spoke with two teachers who said what many feel: SNP cuts are hurting our schools. @scottishlabour has a plan to put education first again. Glasgow Anniesland deserves better, not more of the same, but a new direction.

Great morning on the doorstep in East Wemyss for @ScottishLabour, with our fantastic candidate Donna Donnelly ahead of the forthcoming by-election 🌹

John Swinney failed as Education Secretary and he is failing as First Minister. It’s time for a new direction. https://t.co/DIg793nd5Z

The SNP is failing to support policing and keep our communities safe.

Great to attend the Commonwealth Parliamentary Climate Conference. The Climate Emergency is the defining issue of our times and we need a global approach if we are to truly tackle it head on. It was insightful to hear from our partners across the Commonwealth

Thank you to @NFUStweets for organising such a useful conversation with local East Lothian farmers this morning.

No more ideological opposition to reliable, clean power and thousands of well paid jobs. On day one with @AnasSarwar as First Minister the UK Government will start to deliver on new nuclear in Scotland.

John Swinney has failed. We can’t risk a third decade of the SNP.

The SNP has plunged our NHS into crisis. Scots should not pay the price of SNP failure. https://t.co/qy2erCHDqJ
