Today I reintroduced the Hillsborough Law to Parliament.
The Prime Minister promised enacting this legislation would be one of his first acts in office. A year on, he still hasn’t done it.
I’m showing him that it’s here and ready to go. It just needs political will.

Duplicitous nonsense. Your government has decimated council funding over the last decade. The consequences are poorer & no services. You’ve cut more this year despite record funding and £4.9bn extra. You even take more tax off nurses and teachers.
Where has all the money gone?

This week I joined other Edinburgh MSPs to voice urgent opposition to the Labour-led proposals to slash almost all community mental health funding in the capital. Organisations such as Redhall Walled Garden and those within the Thrive Collective are facing an existential threat👇

I am delighted that my Members Bill to reform Freedom of Information has been introduced in the Scottish Parliament. I look forward to debating why freedom of information law needs reformed and FOI extended to outsourced public services.

We are living through an extraordinary moment – one that future generations will look back on as either the moment we transformed our energy system, or chose not to.
Our new report with @LCEF_UK says it clearly: now is the time for community power, in every sense of the word.

We're taking on the politics of division with community-owned clean green energy.
Our new report, Power in Our Communities shows us a path towards a net zero transition we can all have a stake in. 🌱🤝🏘️
