After careful and serious consideration of views from constituents, clinicians, frontline support specialists in palliative care and domestic abuse, I confirm that I cannot support the Assisted Dying Bill in its current form. Session 7 has the opportunity to legislate on real end of life choice, through commitment to full funding, investment and delivery of consistent, high quality palliative care all across Scotland. 1/5
As we close this page, a huge thank you to all ALBA Aberdeen members and supporters. Your passion, commitment and belief in Scotland have meant a great deal.
Though this page ends, the friendships and shared dedication continue.
Alba gu bràth 💙
Scotland has a "staggering" number of public bodies and it is not clear what many of them do, the information watchdog has said.
David Hamilton said he kept finding new authorities and regulators "that I never even knew existed".

Watching @DarcyWAHF manage to skewer Nicoliar Sturgeon after suffering through her hypocritical drivel on International Women's Day made it all worthwhile. Perfect!

Alba Aberdeen members held their regular monthly meeting last night and passed a unanimous vote of confidence in Kenny and the leadership team as they seek the best way forward for Alba- and in doing so, always prioritising what is best for Scotland and the cause of independence.
There have been serious issues linked to a former member which have left the Party in a difficult position. No final decisions taken; talks with the Electoral Commission continue. There is risk, not conclusion. We remain committed to an independent Scotland and won’t walk away.

A vote for ALBA on your second ballot is a vote for renewed urgency on independence, so we can build a fairer, more prosperous independent Scotland 🏴
