Douglas McAllister MP
@douglasmcallister
At yesterday's Westminster Hall debate on the Access to Work scheme, I raised the case of one of my constituents, requesting that the Minister ensures agreed adjustments are followed, communications are improved and priority cases are genuinely prioritised.

📝It's been a busy week in Parliament and in West Dunbartonshire! Take a look at some of what I got up to last week as your MP👇
❤️⚽️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!
The SNP created the housing crisis in Scotland. 2 decades of failure. The housing emergency is on their watch. Scottish Labour have pledged 125,000 new homes to tackle the housing needs of young people.
After Rory McIlroy's historic back to back Masters win at the weekend, I requested a debate on the future of golf in the UK to discuss how we can ensure our courses, clubs & community facilities like Dalmuir Golf Course are secure to allow the next generation of talent to shine.
West Dunbartonshire is among the UK’s worst hotspots for asbestos-related cancer deaths from exposure at work, with 340+ deaths since 1980. I led a debate last night on asbestos-related cancer, calling for reform of the 2006 Compensation Act to include non-mesothelioma cases.

Securing Pride in Place funding for my hometown of West Dunbartonshire has been the highlight of my time as MP so far. The UK Labour Government is investing in communities like ours, regenerating our towns that were left behind by previous governments.

This is where most people get it wrong. They stay busy, but nothing really moves. The problem isn’t the effort, it’s the direction. There’s a simple way to cut through the noise and focus on what actually drives results. #HedgehogPrinciple #InnovativeSmile #OrangeCarrotMedia

You got hit with a $125 MILLION gas spike overnight. One day. Same commute—just higher cost. This isn’t normal. It’s a system squeezing you while politicians stay silent. Enough. #CA32 #ChrisAhuja #TrumpGasPrices
You are 100% right! As a society we must learn to listen without judgment. Match others' energy and only give back what they are willing to give you. We all must freely use our voice without restraint or limitation. What we have to say is important and due the respect it deserves. SPEAK UP!

Я повен мрій про велелюдну згоду, Бо дням моїм не буде вороття, Бо хочу я, щоб на чолі народу Світився знак і від мого життя. Бо там, де я пройшов, удруге не пройду. В слідах моїх земля дуби підніме й трави, І виплеснуть вони знов силу молоду Під крила вечорів і під світань заграви.
