I to the hills…thanks @RachelReevesMP for vehicle excise duty exemption for Search&Rescue vehicles. Along with @JoshMacAlister I set up an all-party group last year for SAR volunteers who put their lives on the line for others. The chancellor listened, she’s got their back.

The SNP is holding back Scotland from the full advantage of new nuclear projects.
Jobs, apprenticeships, supply chain investment, SMEs - all losing out because of their playground politics.
In May, a change of Scottish Government can reverse that.

Rhoda Grant’s response from the ScotGov highlights concern over NHS dental access in the Highlands. No practices are taking new patients between Kyle and Thurso ,only 43% in Caithness & 29% in Sutherland. We need fair access for all. #Highlands #NHS shorturl.at/PysHI

Following my comments earlier last week, It’s good to see the Council ready to move quickly with an emergency procurement if a new operator steps forward. This route is a lifeline for the area connecting people to healthcare, education, and business shorturl.at/V7hzV

Completely agree with Jackie Baillie on the need for urgent action and a clear focus on rural services.

Expectant mothers in Caithness forced to travel 110 miles along breakneck roads to give birth.
It’s unacceptable — the SNP is letting women down on maternity care.

So pleased to have @jackiebmsp in Wick hearing from @CaithnessTeam about local maternity care. Every mum deserves to feel safe, Caithness families need services that reflect their needs. We need solutions that work.
Meeting campaigners from @CaithnessTeam to hear about the women forced to travel over a hundred miles to give birth after local maternity services were downgraded.
Women deserve better.

Thousands of skilled jobs. Apprenticeships. Supply chain investment. Delivering homegrown secure power.
The sort of opportunities Scotland could benefit from if it weren't for the SNP's misguided ideology on nuclear.

Scotland’s whisky industry is world-leading — supporting thousands of jobs and driving our economy.
Labour will back businesses like this to grow, export, and thrive.

No child should spend most of their education in temporary huts. 5 years after the fire, Park Primary still has no permanent plan. Families need answers & a commitment to deliver. #ParkPrimary #Highlands

Out speaking to voters in Invergordon 🎤🚪
Many feel let down by long NHS waits, poor roads, and feeling unheard. I'm standing for Scottish Labour in Caithness, Sutherland & Ross to fight for better. Thanks to everyone who chatted. #Scottishlabour

John Swinney 🤝 Nigel Farage 🤝 Kemi Badenoch.
Scotland deserves a government that seizes opportunities for growth - but the SNP is obsessed with division.
Speaks for itself.

Best wishes to Rhoda Grant as she announces her decision to step down. Her dedication and advocacy have greatly impacted many, including myself. It’s been an honor to work with Rhoda, and I look forward to campaigning together in the year ahead.

Been speaking to voters in Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse – and they know the SNP are failing Scotland.
800,000 on NHS waiting lists. Standards falling in schools. 10,000 children homeless.
Only @ScottishLabour can beat the SNP here. @DavyRussell4HLS
