Today the Government sets out details of the Infected Blood Compensation Scheme. We have made significant changes to the scheme, listening to the voices of victims, following Sir Robert Francis KC’s report. I pay tribute to all those who have fought so hard on this campaign.

I tried to stop him. I really did. I’m sorry, Taylor.

Delighted that our Deputy Prime Minister, Angela Rayner took the time to visit the Johnnie Walker Experience. As well as the tour we had the chance to meet Sophie, who having completed her apprenticeship is now working with the brand. Thanks to everyone for taking us on the tour

Was great to join the Deputy Prime Minister, Angela Rayner, at Social Bite and speak with staff and previous resident who is still involved with the project. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

Was proud to attend the Edinburgh Hebrew Congregation with other MPs, MSPs and councillors. In spite of our political differences each of us are proud to represent communities that support inclusivity and will always work together to promote a safe and welcoming city.

Was good to catch up with Sophie Moxon, Executive Director of Edinburgh International Book Festival. Excited to see how we can further develop the work she and others are already part of across Edinburgh North and Leith including with North Edinburgh Arts Also thrilled to meet local poet and author, Jenni Fagan

For an uplifting time at the fringe you won’t be disappointed with Yes-Ya-Yebo at The Counting House. Superb performances and completely joyous. It’s part of the Free Festival but donate generously as profits go to support children in South Africa from disadvantaged backgrounds

Deputy PM @angelarayner visited Edinburgh last week. While there she: 🤝Met First Minister 🤝 Visited Social Bite to hear about the work they are doing to help end homelessness 🤝 Visited the Johnnie Walker distillery to find out how they are backing British business

We all have the capacity to love humanity but we don’t all have the same bravery to serve humanity as aid worker Linda Norgrove, her extraordinary family LindaNorgroveFoundation and these 19 trailblazing women. It was the deepest privilege to welcome my new sisters to Scotland.

Delighted to join Lisa Nandy MP & Anas Sarwar as well as professionals across all the creative industries. Excited about their enthusiasm for growing the economy through their commitment to working with a Labour government to maximise their opportunities in Edinburgh North and Leith

Whisky and hospitality play a huge part in growing the economy. Looking forward to building our relationship to deliver economic growth with this sector across Edinburgh North and Leith.

Does Jonathan Reynolds know his Scotch? Time to put him to the test 👀

Finally get to meet fellow Leither, Jo Caulfield. I highly recommend the show. Only a few days left!

Two great teams out on door steps across #Warriston and #Leith over the last two days for my door step surgeries. We picked up lots of issues - if you feel I can help you please e-Mail me at [email protected]

This morning I visited Forth Ports to see the work being undertaken to secure new green jobs in Leith. The energy transition is already happening but we need to work together to secure the wider economic benefits for communities across Edinburgh North and Leith

Lovely to see everyone at the Thank You Event last night. Special thanks to Alison and Niall for supplying the buffet. Was deeply honoured to be given the miners lamp from my dear friend and Labour stalwart, Bob Eadie. Very moved by the gesture

While I welcome todays Contract for Difference AR6 results, slow Scottish Government consenting processes means that SSE Renewables Berwick Bank isn't one of the projects. I am pleased Ed Miliband confirmed he would work with all Governments to ensure faster processes.

I was sad to see the old Paolozzi image go from Leith but this is incredible! Does anyone know who the artist is?

Fantastic news. Hospitality sector workers deserve to have a trade union to represent them and have decent pay and conditions. It’s great that The Joker and Thief recognise this - and its also a great wee local pub! edinburghlive.co.uk/news/edinburgh…

Fantastic charity, if able please support Malcolm Chisholm 💪🏻❤️
