Labour Member of Parliament for the Livingston constituency.

Please email gregor.poynton.mp@parliament.uk with casework.
Busy afternoon getting round the doors in Whitburn and Blackburn with Sam McCulloch ahead of the 11 December West Lothian by-election. Sam’s been working tirelessly for the area and would be a brilliant Scottish Labour councillor. 🌹

Scotland deserves better than two decades of SNP decline.
Our NHS is struggling, schools are falling behind, and communities deserve to feel safe again.

Only Scottish Labour and Anas Sarwar can deliver the change Scotland needs.

🎯 £20 MILLION for Fauldhouse?

I’ve backed West Lothian Council’s £20 million bid from the Pride in Place fund from the UK Government and Fauldhouse is right at the heart of it.

💬 How would you spend it?

Today, the Labour Party paused to remember all those who have died in service of our country, and expresses gratitude to the brave personnel who continue to serve.

We will never forget the sacrifice and service of those who defended our country and fought for our freedom.

Today, we honour all those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Now and always, we will remember them.

In just 6 months, Scotland chooses its future.

Another decade of SNP failure or real change with Scottish Labour.

Let’s rebuild our NHS, support our schools, and bring back hope to communities across West Lothian.

It’s time for a new direction.🌹

Where has the money gone Pete?

With an extra £5.2billion in investment, the SNP Scottish Government need to explain why Scotland's NHS and public services are in crisis.

More than 3,000 military homes across Scotland are set to be upgraded as part of the UK Government’s new Defence Housing Strategy, the biggest investment in Armed Forces housing in over 50 years.

£1 billion underspent by the SNP last year.

That’s money that could’ve funded East Calder Medical Centre, boosted St. John’s Hospital and supported West Lothian schools and public services.

Where’s the money gone, John?

The Livingston constituency deserves better with Labour.

Since being elected last year, I’ve been contacted by thousands of constituents, whether about personal casework, local issues, or national campaigns.

It’s always rewarding to see where my team and I have been able to make a real difference for people across the Livingston constituency.

Out in West Wemyss this afternoon in the beautiful Kingdom of Fife with Richard Baker MP and Claire Baker MSP, supporting our brilliant Scottish Labour candidate Donna Donnelly ahead of next Thursday’s by-election.

The UK Labour Government has provided the largest funding settlement for Scottish public services in the history of devolution.

But much of this has been wasted and now we find £1bn remains unspent.

Where’s the money gone John?

Business owners across the Livingston constituency and West Lothian tell me time and again that excessive bureaucracy holds them back.

That’s why I’m delighted to see this UK Labour Government taking real action to cut red tape and help local firms grow.

The SNP say they’re stronger for Scotland, but they’re really stronger for Portugal.

They’re shipping in £2m of granite from 1,500 miles away to revamp George Square, while world-class Scottish stone sits 15 miles down the road.

Another SNP own goal.

You shouldn’t have to leave your hometown just to find a decent job.

That’s why this Labour Government is doubling down on clean energy: to create 400,000 jobs in every town, city, region and nation of this country.

I’m always grateful when local residents take the time to share feedback like this 📨

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy and this Labour Government is determined to help them grow.

Wages rising, mortgage rates falling, and local opportunities growing.

That’s what Labour is delivering for the Livingston constituency and West Lothian.

The change you voted for has begun, but this is just the start🌹.

Scotland is at the heart of the UK Government’s mission for national renewal.

Great to speak with @scotsman.com about being at today’s global investment summit in Edinburgh and how Labour is working to bring good jobs and new investment to Scotland.
