I’m absolutely delighted to be re-elected as the MP for Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk with an increased majority. Thank you to all who voted for me and to the @scottories team who helped make this happen. Representing the Borders is an honour, let’s get back to work.

Labour broke yet another promise and betrayed farmers across the United Kingdom. It's time to scrap the #FamilyFarmTax! ✍️

Farmers are back out in force calling for Labour to scrap their cruel #FamilyFarmTax. I will be speaking on behalf of farmers at a debate in Westminster later today. Labour must listen! ✍️

@ChrisK1875 Based on the information that farmers and their accountants have shared with me, there will be many in the Borders that will be affected. Lots of useful stats from @NFUStweets

@ChrisK1875 According to independent research, the average UK farm size is approximately 217 acres and using the average GB agricultural land value of Β£8,200/acre (which by definition will undervalue many farms), even modest family farms easily exceed the Β£1 million threshold.

Battery storage plants and mega pylons are being forced into local communities by the SNP and Labour. This is causing major concern for residents across the Borders. Don't hesitate to contact me about this or any other issue you may have πŸ‘‰

Out in Swinton with @Rachael2Win chatting to local residents. A lot of anger at the SNP and Labour for ignoring communities and pushing ahead with battery storage plants that ruin the Borders countryside.

The SNP said that nationalisation would improve ScotRail, instead they’veΒ madeΒ itΒ worse. Borders passengers are paying ridiculously high fares to be squeezed onto overcrowded trains. The SNP need to get a grip.

Across the Borders many residents struggle with poor mobile signal and broadband coverage. I raised concerns with the Minister and will continue to campaign for improvements for local communities. If your broadband service is poor, let me know.

I joined Bryan Robson OBE to support Radiotherapy UK's #CatchUpWithCancer campaign calling on the UK Government to implement a National Cancer Control Plan. This must include funding for vital solutions like radiotherapy which saved Bryan's life! #WorldCancerDay
