Welcome to East Lothian Scottish Conservative & Unionist Assoc.Promoted by S Russell on behalf of ELCUA & Miles Briggs both of 4 Church St Haddington EH41 3EX
Punishing today’s Conservatives for the mistakes of the past isn't just counterproductive—it’s completely self-defeating.
Think about it: it is exactly like a football fanbase refusing to support their club because of a terrible previous season under a completely different manager. It makes zero sense.
For years, the core complaint was clear: "We don't have an ideologically true Conservative leader, and we don't have real Conservative policies." Well, now we do. Under Kemi Badenoch, the landscape has completely shifted:
The Principles: She is delivering the authentic, common-sense conservatism the grassroots have been begging for.
The Vision: She is actively dismantling a decade of misrule and rebuilding the party from the ground up.
The Momentum: Her message is resonating, and her leadership is popular.
But Kemi cannot do this alone. She needs our support to make this renaissance a success.
Right now, the political landscape is fractured by a protest vote that achieves nothing. Splitting the vote for Reform—a party that operates as a volatile one-man band and routinely borrows policies from across the aisle just to patch a manifesto together—doesn't help a single soul in this country.
Worse still, let’s look at what Reform actually represents. The Tories are true blue. True Conservatism is blue.
Voting turquoise—a diluted, compromised blue—gets you a diluted form of conservatism that actively drifts leftward in Northern regions just to chase Red Wall populism. It lacks core stability.
The Conservative Party offers tested, experienced, "old school" representatives who understand how to govern and how to fight for traditional values.
It’s time to stop looking backward at past grievances and start looking forward at the real alternative. If you want genuine, un-diluted Conservatism, back the leader who is actually building it. 🇬🇧
Back Kemi. Back the Blues. 🌳

People will be angered, but not surprised, that John Swinney is seeking to hijack the finance committee to avoid scrutiny of the Scottish government budget.
Do they ever learn?
Today we remember the sacrifice and bravery of the British and Allied forces who stormed the beaches of Normandy 82 years ago.
They fought for freedom, duty, and our values.
We will never forget their sacrifice.
A vote for the Conservatives is a vote telling the SNP and Labour that their war on domestic oil and gas must end.
There’s only one candidate who can beat the SNP in Aberdeen South, and that’s @DLumsden_MSP .
The #government estimate was for 10,000 pupil losses by year 2. It is running at more than 3x forecast.
The reality will be a @hmtreasury loss as costs of unnecessarily displaced children falls upon the public purse.
But of course to @UKLabour it was never about raising tax; it was designed to close schools (110 so far) and a parental choice they despise.

Here’s Scotland’s First Minister, John Swinney saying that the Scottish voters backed his ‘integrity’. Yet the court hearing for former SNP chief executive Peter Murrell was postponed from 20 February 2026 until 25 May 2026 - after the Scottish election.
In April, Darren Jones denied sending a 'warm message' to Mandelson on the day he was sacked, claiming it was along the lines of 'I don't know what's going on...'
His actual message: 'You’ve been doing such a great job, and you worked wonders with Trump. I’m so sorry about today'
Swinney was there during every SNP malfeasance and now acts like an innocent bystander.
He appointed Murrell - He defended the secrecy - He helped shield the party when questions over the missing money were asked.
He is not a safe pair of hands, he’s part of the problem - @theSNP culture of entitlement, excuses, and zero accountability didn’t happen by accident.
Scotland deserves a proper reckoning, not tired deflections.
The biggest problem isn’t just Sturgeon or Murrell. It’s the people who enabled it all.
Just too revolting & barbaric to even get your head around. So so many young girls let down atrociously by local authorities & local police. Most because they didn’t want to called names! Institutions have got to stop being scared of words & do their jobs
The most dishonest woman in politics.
She said they would employ 6500 more teachers, there are 1900 fewer.
She is treating the public with total contempt.
Has John Swinney learnt no lessons from the SNP financial scandal about the importance of transparency and independent audit, about the separation of powers?
Clearly not if this attempt to hijack the Finance Committee is anything to go by.

Awkward. Speaking in parliament in 2022, John Swinney railed against the economic illiteracy of people suggesting he had the right to spend ringfenced money on other things.
£400k stolen by Murrell.
£600k SNP cash missing.
£500k spent by Swinney on a case against Salmond he knew he couldn’t win.
Most Scots can’t afford to go to the World Cup.
Who is paying for this trip?
The First Minister isn’t supporting Scotland he is taking the piss out of us.
