Marionville Fire Station is a lifeline for the east of Edinburgh, yet it’s under immense threat. I am standing with Chris Murray MP and Cllr Joan Griffiths to oppose its closure.

Sign the petition below to stop this vital station from being permanently shut down.

At FMQs today I challenged the FM about the proposed closure of Marionville Station - it provides vital services in the heart of our capital city at a time when our fire services are under increasing pressure.

we need more firefighters not cuts

I pressed the Scottish Government what they more will do to assist councils in developing not for profit heat networks. We also need regional networks so that councils can work together to maximise the benefits of heat & power across Scotland

Delighted that the First Minister committed to look at securing the Filmhouse the final capital which would address accessibility & efficiency, ahead of its opening on the 27th of June

To create well-paid renewables jobs, we need more investment to support supply chains and manufacturing now. Instead, the Scottish Government have kicked the can down the road until after the Scottish Parliament election.

It is clear the SNP dropped their 20% reduction in car usage target because they were going to miss it. We need leadership with a plan, that provides affordable, accessible & reliable public transport & safer streets.

The EIJB has made draconian cuts to charities due to the Scottish Government’s underfunding. Edinburgh Council has stepped in but I asked Shona Robinson if she is aware just how bad the situation is getting here in Edinburgh for charities supporting people’s health and wellbeing

We have seen an increase in the number of under 22s using buses but in committee, I asked what steps we are taking to ensure those habits endure after their bus pass expires. It is critical that we ensure young people continue to be able to have access to reliable, affordable public transport.

Even with extra funding from the UK government the Scottish Government still delivered a real terms cut to the energy efficiency and de-carbonisation budget. To tackle the climate crisis we need investment from the SNP – not cuts.
