A casual “six children between us” might sound harmless, but it reveals something deeper about how women’s health is still understood. I’ve written about why that matters: elizabethcarrellis.com/women…

There’s more to women’s health than child-bearing and to cite children as a qualification is deeply insulting to women with reproductive conditions that mean they are unable to have children
'Between us we’ve got in excess of 150 years of life living on this planet - six children between us' New Health Secretary, @AConstance23 defends the Scottish Government's decision to scrap a dedicated Women's Health minister - despite concerns from campaigners.

My letter to The Scotsman about why dropping a ministerial role shows the SNP no longer prioritise women’s health. Read here: scotsman.com/news/opinion/le…

Scrapping the women's health minister shows the SNP doesn't believe women's health is a priority - or that there's anything wrong with the system. Time for a rethink @AConstance23 elizabethcarrellis.com/why-s…

It’s worrying that Nicola Sturgeon couldn’t recognise that her ex-husband’s spending didn’t match his salary. If someone at the top can’t spot when money simply doesn’t add up, how can they really understand what ordinary people can and can’t afford?

This is exactly why I started Pausitivity KnowYourMenopause and exactly what we warned of happening. If women don’t understand perimenopause - and it’s turned into a lifestyle by meno influencers - then they will be prone to all suggestions and not get the help they truly need theguardian.com/society/2026…

Taking menopause out to disadvantaged groups is one of my proudest achievements - with no funding and a full-time job. Fighting for women's health brought me into politics and I will not stop until every woman gets the healthcare she needs bigissue.com/life/health/men…

Menopause clinics in every health board? What I’ve been fighting for since pre-COVID and what I’m delighted to see in Scottish Labour’s manifesto.

Education changed my life. Right now, too many kids in Scotland aren’t getting that same chance. The attainment gap was meant to be closing.
It’s not. And that’s on this SNP government. @ScottishLabour @ScotsLabStudent @AnasSarwar

I love it when my two campaigning worlds collide. Women’s health will always be a priority for me - from menstruation to menopause and everything in between. This campaign got me into politics and it’s why I keep going: practical ways to change what isn’t working @ScottishLabour
