My head might be regretting some of my choices at Paisley Food and drink festival last night but nothing can change my mood this weekend. My beautiful daughter @jessylou_x brought our fourth grandchild Molly into the world on Wednesday. World say hello to Molly. ❤️

So 25 years ago today @staceyjaneadam and I got married. Bookmakers in Paisley, along with some family members were giving short odds on us lasting a year! 😜. Just goes to show you never can tell…. Happy Silver Wedding Anniversary Stace! Xxx.

Good news in @theSNP Manifesto for the RAH in Paisley. As always I take a #TeamPaisley approach to everything and represent our town in a positive manner. During these difficult times Paisley needs someone who has a strong record of delivery for our town. #BothVotesSNP

Can someone check with VAR to see if this is actually his final decision?.
I wish Liz Truss and her family well. She has made a tough choice but it is the right decision. We must now move forward quickly and the new Leader and Prime Minister will have to restore stability for the good of the country.

Well, Buds, today’s the big day for #UKCityOfCulture2021 and for @Paisley2021 in our towns exciting and bold bid. We have everything that is required by @DCMS for the title and in my impartial opinion the strongest bid. Let’s do this Paisley! #Paisley2021 #TeamPaisley.

Sometimes I forget how challenging living with Multiple Sclerosis can be for @staceyjaneadam. Understandable as she never seems to be down. As she made her way to the @ScotParl she spoke, smiled and waved to people as she headed down the Royal Mile. I’m a very lucky guy! 💕😘

The minute Johnson made that comment last week I knew it wouldn’t be long before scenes like this. The really horrible fact is Johnson knew that as well when he said what he said. Absolutely disgusting and how he’s still there I’ll never know.
Last week, Boris Johnson parroted a far-right conspiracy about Keir Starmer. Today, the Labour leader was hounded off the street by a mob shouting about Jimmy Savile.

Emma replied on behalf of the SNP Group and spoke of the legacy of Nicola Sturgeon on empowering women and girls throughout Scotland. Emma is one of those women and her speech was extremely powerful. She was incredible today and perfect example talent within the SNP.
Nicola Sturgeon’s legacy is not just her policies, it is also those she lifted up with her as she climbed. Her impact in this sense is immeasurable but I’m sure we will see it clearly through the many women that will enter this parliament in the years and decades to come.

@RossThomson_MP @ScotNational But it’s not a compliment, Ross. If I was you I’d be concerned as @ScotNational see you as a joke politician and a figure of fun. Not a good place for you to be in but you’ve turned yourself into this joke figure.

I was there to hear @SandraWhiteSNP’s fine final speech in the @ScotParl today. Sandra has known me since I was a teenage member of the SNP in Paisley. She was a Councillor in Foxbar before she was elected to @ScotParl. Her frankness and straight talking will be missed.
1/2. With attention very much focused on events in Committee Room 1 today, let’s not overlook our very own fantastic Kelvin MSP, @SandraWhiteSNP, who made what was announced by the DPO as her final speech in the Scottish Parliament. After over 21 years of devoted public service.

It's taken me a bit of time to think of what I would write as it's all a little bit raw and emotional at the moment. But I've tried to find a way to express my thoughts on our First Minister and how today's decision has made us all feel. It's an auld picture but a favourite.
