Pleasure to join @ScotLINK outside parliament today standing up for the environment -especially trees

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

Today I have asked about getting an NHS app on a par with what’s available in England. I’m afraid that what has been announced isn’t it.

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

To much applause

"Mr Flynn, you're not in Westminster now..."

New SNP MSP @StephenFlynnSNP told off by Presiding Officer Kenneth Gibson at backbenchers' #FMQs.

Holding the SNP to account this week on the Murrell scandal, a gimmicky homes fund and my campaign for a recall bill.

Quite

[Tom Harris 🇬🇧 @MrTCHarris]

This is an excellent contribution and she deals with the mock laughter from nonce-adjacent MSPs admirably. Perhaps instead of smearing every Reform member and MSP as "far-Right", the other parties should represent the views of their voters as accurately as she does.

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

I asked John Swinney how we can progress a Recall Bill again. It's good to have his support.

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

Sad to hear of the death of jazz legend Sonny Rollins at the age of 95. I am lucky to have been able to see the great man perform many years ago in Edinburgh.

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

An enjoyable read. I have high hopes for Kenny in this role. He’s full of ideas, has a great sense of humour and will bring a bit of dynamism to the job that has been missing.

[euan mccolm @euanmccolm]

He walks like Lee Evans, drinks Cointreau and lemonade. and has absolutely no filter. My @scotonsunday column on Holyrood’s clever and likeable new Presiding Officer, Kenny Gibson. Might he be the great reformer our parliament needs?: https://t.co/1a6uKBAFzJ

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

Jo's a fantastic candidate and would make a great MP.

[Reform UK Scotland @ReformUKScot]

Reform and Jo Hart will prioritise more drilling in the North Sea, create jobs and grow the economy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

These changes are necessary and for the better

[Conor Matchett @conor_matchett]

Questions not being published in advance is the simplest reform available to the new PO and the one which could have the biggest impact - just so we don't hear two people read out scripts on Qs 4-7...

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

I am absolutely delighted to have this brief and look forward to working with all my pals in both of these vital sectors

[Reform UK Scotland @ReformUKScot]

@GrahamSMSP is Shadow Minister for Transport and Tourism

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

@LabourCfS @KatySClark Katy will be great

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

A weight has been lifted from the parliament

[Presiding Officer @POScotParl]

It's an honour and a privilege to be elected Presiding Officer @scotparl.

Congratulations to my two new Deputy Presiding Officers @ClareAdamsonSNP and @KatySClark.

We will work together on behalf of all Members at Holyrood.

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

@conor_matchett Glad I persuaded you of that. Kenny was the right choice for parliament.

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

Two very strong candidates, this is a good idea.

[@GinaDavidson @ginadavidsonlbc]

MSPs Liam McArthur and Kenny Gibson will take part in an impromptu Presiding Officer hustings in Holyrood tomorrow. First time one has been held. Event organised by Stephen Kerr.

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

It pays to listen and, yes, legislators need to understand the details.

[Allison @LetAlbaFlourish]

@Sibileen_O @ForWomenScot They sadly don’t know what that means - had plenty of time to find out.

@GrahamSreform I have a lot of time for as he listens but women’s rights aren’t like carbon credits that organisations buy to get a sticker - it critically matters that legislators understand details.

[Graham Simpson @GrahamSMSP]

A joke
