A few weeks ago, my family chose to make a sacrifice and leave a job I loved in a place we love.
Yesterday, people in Makerfield chose this country’s path. Emphatically.
@andy4makerfield loves this place and will change our political culture.
I’m proud to stand by him, and the brilliant team, in this fight.
Hope. That’s what lies ahead.
Congratulations to Andy Burnham and the Labour team on a big win in Makerfield.
Thank you to our candidates and activists in Aberdeen South and Arbroath and Broughty Ferry. They ran spirited campaigns, but the results didn’t match their efforts.
It’s clear that lessons need to be learned, but it also proves that Reform can be beaten across the UK.
A huge thanks to the people of the Makerfield constituency for your patience and good humour over the last five weeks. My thanks too to the many volunteers who came up to support my campaign. We ran a very positive one and can be proud of it! 🙏🏻
That’s polls closed! 🎬🗳️
Thank you to our fantastic candidates and activists, and to everyone who placed their trust in Scottish Labour by voting for us today 🌹
Thank you to everyone who has knocked on doors, leafletted, stopped Andy for a selfie and of course all of you across our towns who voted for hope today.
I’m genuinely delighted that Glasgow and Boston will become twinned cities.
Boston is one of the best cities in North America and has so much in common with our city - from culture to architecture and now to being the site of great Scottish footballing victories.
Whether it’s the First Minister, the Scottish Greens, or Reform UK endorsing Holyrood’s new ‘media pen’ restricting press freedom stifles democracy.
Genuine concerns about conduct and safety should be addressed by Parliament without blocking scrutiny and transparency.
Sleekit Swinney dodges questions about journalists being penned in at Holyrood.
He's spent weeks losing the rag at journalists asking legitimate questions about SNP scandal - No wonder he is happy to avoid scrutiny.
It’s hard to overstate how absolutely awful this framing is in just a 13 second video.
Football players aren’t responsible for domestic abuse, abusers are!
