My response to the @InvCourier reader's manifesto in Friday's paper, and as a child brought up with Grandparents listening to Tammy Wynette, I feel I'm very much in my rightful place above Country Superstars 🤠💕

“When days are few life is very precious” Now that the Scottish Parliament has said “no” to Assisted Death ( phew) let’s look at how we can ensure everyone gets the best ‘end of life care’ (in their own beds if they want) thebeatcroft.com/2020/01/

Minister vows to protect Highland communities from heating oil price gouging inverness-courier.co.uk/news/minister-…

Pleased that @scotgov will provide this support following the fire on Glasgow Union St. At the same time this announcement was being made @FBUScotland officials were being briefed by civil servants on £millions of further cuts the Scottish Fire Service may face. #CutsLeaveScars

Beyond parody. Delivered years late, tens of millions over budget and after a year in service, doesn’t work. It’s a fitting symbol for SNP Scotland.

Caithness women’s basic human rights are being ignored and unmet. Many thanks to MSP Rhoda Grant for highlighting this to Scottish Ministers. @RhodaGrant @JohnSwinney @jenni_minto @neilcgray #100milestoofar #caithnessmatters #womensrights #remoteandrural

Good to catch up with Michael Shanks MP and get some of his reflections on community energy and how the Labour Government is committed to unlocking its potential here in the Western Isles and across the country.

A Scottish Labour Government with Anas Sarwar as First Minister will act to end the scandal of rough sleeping, building 125,000 new homes.

Thanks to @mgshanks for taking time out of a busy day speaking about all things community energy to open our campaign office on Point Street in Stornoway. 9 weeks to go!

The NHS is Labour's proudest achievement, we will always fight to protect it.

Glasgow Airport is a lifeline for islanders. It’s beyond time it was linked to the city by rail.

I was knocking doors in Benbecula today. Almost everyone I spoke to mentioned the proposed closure of the Bank of Scotland branch, there are real concerns in the community about access to cash. That’s why I am supporting @torcuil’s call for a banking hub in Balivanich.

After years of SNP failure, Scotland is in a housing crisis. As First Minister, I won’t look the other way. Every Scot deserves a home - and delivering that will be my priority.
