    I have launched my crowdfunder for my campaign to be re-elected as the local MSP for Dumbarton. I am proud to stand up for local people, fighting for issues that matter to our community over the last 22 years. Any donation however small is much appreciated

    The First Minister is not telling the truth. I sat on the parliamentary committee considering the national energy company and the SNP abandoned their pledge in 2018, long before anyone knew about covid.

    Nicola Sturgeon caught lying about why she broke her promise to set up a publicly owned energy company. Scotland deserves better than the lies, conceit and deceit of #SleekitSturgeon

    A huge thank you to everyone who voted for me in Dumbarton Constituency - all 17,825 of you. The highest number of voters and biggest vote share for Labour in the seat ever. I am proud to serve the community in which I live and I won’t let you down #SP21 @ScottishLabour

    But you should have known. You were health secretary when c.diff rampaged through hospitals and care homes as a result of people being discharged without being tested. It was a mistake you could have avoided if you had learnt lessons from over 10 years ago.

    What I said is that with the benefit of knowledge we have now (but did not have then), it was a mistake. But too many people in care homes died and we must be candid about that. I hope the other UK govts will join me in committing to a full public inquiry starting later this year

    I have written to the Crown Office today to ask them to investigate whether Peter Murrell made a false statement under oath to the Committee under section 44 (1) of the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995

    What kind of country have we become under the SNP government that we are refusing to treat people who have cancer for a second time instead sending them to England for treatment. #BBCLeadersDebate

    Extraordinary and appalling behaviour to target the victim. Ian Blackford really does need to go. And why did Nicola Sturgeon do nothing when she knew about these allegations for years?

    As No10 went into meltdown today, SNP has been busy behind the scenes... threatening the victim (a party staffer) of sex pest MP Patrick Grady with misconduct action & having his work email account locked after he sent an email to MPs/staff criticising SNP response to the scandal

    Imagine the Lord Advocate having to order a search of the permanent secretary’s office for documents. Very embarrassing.

    For any First Minister to mislead parliament is serious, but to mislead the Court of Session is without precedent.

    Money meant to help struggling businesses during covid has been diverted by the SNP to fund pre-election giveaways. And because it’s one off funding, it’s not in the budget for the future, so all those giveaways may have to be cut. Scotland deserves better than this.

    I don’t usually make predictions but…. I don’t think Humza Yousaf will make it to the vote of no confidence on Wednesday. He will resign before that as he cannot accept support from Alba and the Greens have made clear they won’t back him. It’s over.

    Peter Murrell, SNP Chief Executive and husband of the First Minister, in response to my question at Committee denied there were other text or what’s app messages. But there are. #Marr @BBCScotlandNews @BBCNews
