I have been helping the @ReformUKScot council by election campaign in Larkhall today where our candidate Fiona McDermott is in with a great chance. Some very positive feedback from voters.

The SNP and Greens have voted down a parliamentary inquiry into matters of public trust following the Murrell scandal. What a tawdry affair.

Scotland needs growth but we won’t get it with high taxes and stifling regulations

We continue to miss woodland planting targets and as a tree champion I want us to be far more ambitious

Really useful visit as always to @FVCollege in Falkirk with my superb colleagues Mandy Lindsay, Amanda Bland and Julie MacDougall. The college sector is being massively short-changed. This can’t go on.

Disappointing response from Gillian Martin. It sounds like we are not very close to having a register of ancient woods in Scotland.

Today I have asked about getting an NHS app on a par with what’s available in England. I’m afraid that what has been announced isn’t it.

This is an excellent contribution and she deals with the mock laughter from nonce-adjacent MSPs admirably. Perhaps instead of smearing every Reform member and MSP as "far-Right", the other parties should represent the views of their voters as accurately as she does.

I asked John Swinney how we can progress a Recall Bill again. It's good to have his support.

Sad to hear of the death of jazz legend Sonny Rollins at the age of 95. I am lucky to have been able to see the great man perform many years ago in Edinburgh.

An enjoyable read. I have high hopes for Kenny in this role. He’s full of ideas, has a great sense of humour and will bring a bit of dynamism to the job that has been missing.

He walks like Lee Evans, drinks Cointreau and lemonade. and has absolutely no filter. My @scotonsunday column on Holyrood’s clever and likeable new Presiding Officer, Kenny Gibson. Might he be the great reformer our parliament needs?: scotsman.com/news/opinion/re…

These changes are necessary and for the better
Questions not being published in advance is the simplest reform available to the new PO and the one which could have the biggest impact - just so we don't hear two people read out scripts on Qs 4-7...
