It is imperative that we ensure Musselburgh retains a theatre space in the town, but listing the current Brunton theatre would jeopardise this. Colleagues and I have written to Historical Environment Scotland to set out why we believe that listing the building is a mistake.

We are grateful to @ScottishLabour MSPs for adding their names in support of our statement on recognition. Alongside yesterday’s statement from @AnasSarwar, it sends a clear message that all Scottish Labour MSPs support recognition of the State of Palestine.

Great to be out with @bphillipsonMP and Edinburgh activists in support of @Oliver4Edinb. The great weather reflected the response we received on the doors!

BREAKING: The UK Labour Government has just officially recognised the State of Palestine. This is a huge and historic moment.

The SNP are now attempting to fiddle NHS waiting times figures. You just can’t trust the SNP with our NHS.

Young people aren't the problem in our society - they are the solution. @AnasSarwar knows this and First Minister will give all young Scots the opportunities they deserve.

Come join the @ScottishLabour team ahead of 2026!

Only @AnasSarwar and @ScottishLabour can deliver a new direction for our NHS

Now is the time to build and to sweep away the barriers to economic growth that have held us back for too long. That was my message to CBI Scotland last night. We have enormous opportunity as a country - now is the time to build that prosperous future.

I’m standing for the community that made me who I am today. In Coatbridge and Chryston we don’t walk by on the other side.

The SNP ferry fiasco is a disaster. As First Minister I will deliver for our islands and stand up for our skilled shipbuilders. https://t.co/DoBS14FLZt

A fantastic team out campaigning for @pauline4glasgow this morning. Residents are fed up with long NHS waiting lists and falling school standards. It's time for a new direction for Scotland with @ScottishLabour.

This weekend head down to Portobello for the @artwalkporty there is the chance to view art in houses, shops and in public spaces. You can also vote for your favourite garden #floweringporty Thanks to @SarahBoyack for joining me in the sunshine to check it out!

I met with Heat Pump Association outside Holyrood to discuss with industry stakeholders how we can use heat pumps as a means to reduce bills across Scotland. It was fascinating to talk to manufacturers from the Lothians as well as to see heat pumps in action.

Great opening debate on the Scottish Youth Parliament’s work on transport. In the words of one MSYP “the under 22s bus pass is great but it’s not much use if there’s not a bus to use it on”. all young people must have access to safe, affordable and sustainable public transport

Campaigns like the one to secure a new station at Winchburgh illustrate how crucial functioning rail networks are. I spoke about why affordable, accessible railways are vital to ensuring we give people freedom to travel while tackling the climate crisis.

Scotland is in need of a new direction. Only @AnasSarwar can deliver it

I had the pleasure of hosting a Smart Energy Scotland event, alongside @JackieDunbarSNP , in Holyrood. Cost of living is one of the critical issues of our time so thhis was a fantastic event that got a range of organisations to come in and discuss their work tackling the issue.

Scottish Labour team checking in with residents today in Portobello. Former SNP voters frustrated with growing NHS waiting lists and strained public services. Time’s up⏱️we are ready to win and ready to serve

£10Bn of investment, 2,000 high-skill jobs and securing the future of shipbuilding on the Clyde. This is the difference a Labour government makes.
