At Northern Ireland Questions, I highlighted the record investment the Executive has recently received in Barnett Consequentials from our UK Labour Government, calling on the Executive to produce a balanced, multi-year budget that will deliver for the people of Northern Ireland.

I am determined to ensure that young people in West Dunbartonshire don't miss out on the employment & training opportunities offered by Defence Technical Colleges. I asked if the Scottish Government have confirmed if they will match this UK Government funding for our colleges.

@sascampaigns.bsky.social investigation revealed 204,000+ hours of illegal sewage spills occurred in English waters last year, with Scottish Water only monitoring 30% of overflows in Scotland. I asked the UK Government to take tougher action to ensure water companies are held to account.

Many of my West Dunbartonshire constituents have shared with me their experiences of living with EDS, with delayed or overlooked diagnoses leading to unnecessary pain & distress. Earlier diagnoses and increased awareness are needed to improve the lives of those living with EDS.

❤️⚽️Today at Business Questions, I congratulated @clydebankfc.bsky.social on being officially awarded SFA Bronze Licence status, following their receipt of £240,000 Pride in Place Funding from the UK Labour Government, allowing the Bankies to upgrade Holm Park and reach their new status!

Shame on the SNP for trying to silence me on child poverty. They tried their best to shout me down today at PMQs but failed. The SNP cannot handle the truth that they had 8 years to lift the two child benefit cap - it takes a Labour Government to deliver.

West Dunbartonshire is 1 of only 10 areas in Scotland receiving a brand new Youth Hub funded by UK Government to support to our young people looking for employment or training, and tackle youth unemployment. I'm looking forward attending the opening of our Youth Hub this month!

West College Scotland Clydebank continues to face relentless cuts from the SNP Scottish Government, impacting local students' further study options. I asked how we can work with Government colleagues to ensure Scottish colleges once again become engines of growth & opportunity.

At the debate on the Glasgow City Region's economy, I advocated for greater investment in West Dunbartonshire, highlighting the incredible potential we have here in the former Exxon site in Bowling & former Carless site in Old Kilpatrick which could provide well-paid, local jobs.

The UK Labour Government is improving children's lives across the UK, including lifting 2,260 in West Dunbartonshire out of poverty. We need a Scottish Labour Government more interested in an education recovery programme rather than the same gimmicks & more SNP broken promises.

Nadia found these incredible Star Wars baseball jerseys at Star Trader in Disneyland. Both feature the number 77 on the back to honor the year it all began. The orange Rebel Alliance top has a pilot helmet and X-wing embroidery. The black Imperial jersey features a Stormtrooper and Vader’s TIE.

Trump and Noem took resources away from critical DHS programs to boost ICE’s terror in our communities. At House Democrats' Minnesota hearing, I spoke with Mendota Heights Police Chief Kelly McCarthy on how this was never about safety.

The founders intended our U.S. Senators to serve as a moderating, independent check on presidential power, especially in foreign relations. Unfortunately, that “independence” is missing from Idaho Senator Jim Risch.

Secret Service agents are being paid during the DHS shutdown, largely funded by $ from a previous legislative funding bill. As of March ‘26, LEO’s at the Secret Service, along w/ ICE & CBP, are being paid, unlike some fed staff who initially missed paychecks. I’m so sick of this bullshit rhetoric 👇
