Statement on Alloa Campus ➡️
I’ve been contacted many times over the years by constituents living with chronic pain. It’s a longstanding issue that affects people across Clackmannanshire and Stirling, and I know how hard it can be to access the right care and support.

Free nuisance call blockers are now available for vulnerable residents across Clackmannanshire and Stirling.
I welcome this announcement — these devices will help protect people from nuisance calls and phone scams. It’s an issue I’ve campaigned on, so I’m pleased to see action being taken locally.

Is the BBC still delivering for Scotland?
At Holyrood's CEEAC Committee, I raised serious concerns over their “appalling” coverage of the Scotland v Greece match - no commentary, delayed start, poor production. Our national games deserve better.

Labour’s winter heating U-turn raises more questions than answers.
They stripped support from pensioners, now say they’ll “reconsider” — but there’s no start date, no detail, and no clarity from Downing Street.

In these volatile times, my government will act to protect workers and businesses - which is why I brought forward the Programme for Government from September to next week.
We also need action from the UK government:
👉 Scrap damaging fiscal rules
👉 Rebuild EU ties
👉 Reverse the tax on jobs
