The closure of the ExxonMobil plant at Mossmorran has been a blow to the workers and community there. I have been encouraged to see the constructive work between Fife Council and the UK and Scottish governments, but that needs to be built on to secure future opportunities at the site.

I support a franchising model for bus services in Fife, to prevent companies from constantly changing routes and picking and choosing the most profitable. Local people need stable services they can plan their lives around.

Margaret Thatcher built more boats on the Clyde than the SNP ever have and now the Islanders, shipyard workers and taxpayers are paying the price. #ferries #scotlibdems #elections

The Children (Care, Care Experience and Services Planning) Bill which was passed by MSPs last week will not on its own be enough to keep the Promise that was made to care-experienced people, but it was an important step.

I attended a hustings organised by the campaign group Pregnant Then Screwed and set out my ambitions for the future of childcare in Scotland. It is an important issue for the economy - supporting parents back to work - but also for children's lives.

The SNP promised in its 2021 manifesto to create an exchange programme to replace Erasmus scheme, which the UK left as a result of Brexit, but they failed to deliver anything more than a pilot scheme.

I have called for the current revaluation of business rates to be paused, in order to address the concerns of hospitality and self-catering businesses. Many fear that they simply won't be able to continue operating if the increases in their rates go ahead.

If the government is serious about valuing the childcare workforce, it needs to fix the gap in funding faced by private and voluntary nurseries. Staff end up paid less than those in council-run nurseries because of unequal government funding.

Over the last five years a total of 17,811 children were trapped in temporary accommodation for longer than a year. That represents a catastrophic failure by the SNP and whoever is in government after the election needs to commit that it won't happen again.

Sanne Dijkstra-Downie is a brilliant candidate in Edinburgh Northern and she is the only one who can beat the SNP. I was out campaigning with her yesterday as people start receiving their postal votes and the support for Sanne was clear.

⚖️ Kolkata: TMC chief and former WB CM Mamata Banerjee reached Calcutta High Court in lawyer’s attire to appear before Chief Justice Sujoy Pal in the post-poll violence PIL matter. She is likely to question multiple aspects of the ongoing proceedings. 👀

The Tantura massacre. IDF never changed, never had reform. Imagine a group that behaved this way and was rewarded for it. That's what we have today - and world states cower and fear to do anything in real policy objection.
