While I believe he has no interest in running for Holyrood, I would also say the same for Tommy Sheppard.
A good socialist, an excellent voice for the downtrodden both for his constituents and in Gaza, and Westminster is a worse place without him on the green benches.
Silas is a tireless party activist with a wealth of campaign experience. If elected, he will speak up for Lothian members and ensure their voice is put at the heart of party governance reform and decision making 🗳️

1/ While disappointed by it I respect ruling of @UKSupremeCourt - it doesn't make law, only interprets it.
A law that doesn't allow Scotland to choose our own future without Westminster consent exposes as myth any notion of the UK as a voluntary partnership & makes case for Indy
Ballots now out for #SNP22.
Lothian members - re-elect me and I'll keep working my socks off to make sure our Party & our movement continue the progress we've made over the past year towards #independence.
Heading to @theSNP conference this weekend? Polls for internal elections open at 10.30am tomorrow and I hope you’ll consider giving me your top preference as Lothian regional rep on the NEC 🗳
If you have any questions for me, please reach out on here!

Spending Monday evening with a cup of tea and catching up on Strictly cause we are cool @ Gilmerton, Midlothian, United Kingdom https://t.co/k9iiofzn1b
A huge thank you to everyone who voted for us. This is the clearest mandate any party has won since 2003.
Immediately, parties have to work together to tackle cost-of-living crisis.

At the new Haudagain Roundabout bypass which will open later on today, awaiting Transport Minister @JennyGilruth for the ribbon cutting ceremony. Yes, it is actually happening!
LAST CHANCE! If you aren't registered to vote you have until MIDNIGHT to get yourself on the register for next month's local elections. You can register if you are 16 or over and permanently resident in Scotland, regardless of citizenship.
