- Home Aid is a charitable organisation that recycles used furniture and supports people across West Lothian who face social and economic exclusion.
- Every week, I’m out across the Livingston constituency with my team as part of my regular street surgery programme - on the doors, with businesses on our main streets, and out in our communities.
- Delivering for the Livingston constituency, backed by a UK Labour Government. I was pleased to meet Lisa Nandy MP, Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, to welcome the UK Labour Government investment that has already delivered an upgraded pitch at Murieston United Football Club.
- The SNP budget confirmed what we already feared- Scotland has been left with a black hole in its finances. The SNP have failed Scotland. On May 7th, Scotland can choose fresh leadership and a better future with Anas Sarwar and Scottish Labour
- A real win for grassroots football in the Livingston constituency ⚽ A £242,360 UK Labour Government investment has already delivered an upgraded pitch at Murieston United Community Football Club - now in use and making a difference.
- Less than 100 days until Scotland goes to the polls and less than 100 days to save our NHS.
- I held a supermarket surgery at Asda in The Centre, Livingston recently speaking with store staff and management, and giving local residents the chance to raise any issues before or after their shop. 🛒 And yes - I even got a turn on the store tannoy!🎙️ Watch the video to see how I got on.
- 🌏 What global trade deals mean locally 👇 Cutting Scotch whisky tariffs into China from 10% to 5% is a major win for the Livingston constituency and West Lothian supporting producers like Glenmorangie with more exports, more investment, and more good, well-paid jobs.
- This election is a decisive moment for Scotland, with the chance to change the government for the first time in almost twenty years and put the country on a new path.
- Today, we pause to remember the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust, and all those who were persecuted by the Nazi regime, as well as the victims of genocide throughout history. We remember. We reflect. And we recommit to make sure it never happens again.

- Fauldhouse is a great community with potential and people who get things done. What's been missing is the backing to match it. Now up to £20 million of funding from the UK Labour government has been secured by my colleague Kirsteen Sullivan and me for Fauldhouse, alongside Whitburn and Blackburn.
- As you all know, East Calder is continuing to grow, but the medical centre has been left behind. No upgrades, no expansions and, most importantly, no new building that the community has been promised to help meet demand. And for years, local people have been promised action.
- With Labour, mortgage costs are coming down. Since Labour entered the UK government, six interest rate cuts have helped bring the cost of a typical new two year fixed mortgage down to around £1,071 a month.
