We have a Culture Secretary who is more interested in ending culture wars than winning them. It was a joy to have Lisa Nandy MP in Scotland this week - please read her important piece about the power of the arts to unite and inspire.
Trade-offs, long-term decisions, evaluation of the evidence, a commitment to the national not sectoral interest, a desire to unite not divide: this is a serious plan from a serious man. Keir Starmer's life has been one of service, his government will be one too.
Artwork from Scotland and the North East is set to make a global impact! Government Art Collection has added 20 new pieces by artists as part of the #ArtXUK initiative. These will be featured in embassies across the world, highlighting the talent of British artists on an international scale🎨🌍
Dinner at Loanhead’s StewartBrewing to celebrate the summer sun and the end of #ScotlandLovesLocal week.
Just some of the Scottish Labour team who’ve been out delivering our thank you postcards. #NationalCampaignWeekend
Thanks to a very thoughtful gift from Torcuil Crichton MP for Na h-Eileanan an Iar there will always be an islander overseeing things in my office. If the decisions in this box don’t work for the islands they don’t work full stop. The Queen will keep me right.
Brought up in a mining community, I was proud to use my first question to ask UK Government Scotland about plans to end the injustice of the Mineworkers’ Pension Scheme. As Kirsty McNeill MP shows, Scottish Labour is at the heart of Government delivering for communities in Scotland.
Truly #LikeNowhereElse. Thanks to Royal Conservatoire of Scotland for such a heart-swelling afternoon remembering that we need the roses as well as the bread. Scotland, the UK and the world are so very lucky to have you.
