Fantastic afternoon at the @northedinfest on Saturday at West Pilton Park, where I shared a stall with Ben Macpherson MSP and Cllr Stuart Dobbin. Great to hear from so many folk, catch up with lots of local organisations & enjoy the entertainment in the lovely sunshine☀️

Scotland rightly declared a housing emergency, because there’s more that needs to be done and we need new ambition. But the facts are facts: Scotland builds a lot more homes per capita than England and Wales - no matter how loud the Tories try to shout down @JohnSwinney . #FMQs

📉 By slashing Scotland’s capital budget, Westminster is making the challenges we face more difficult. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 The Westminster parties should put an end to fourteen years of crippling austerity.

"How often can we bemoan bank branch closures in this place, while the government sits on its hands and refuses to meaningfully intervene?" I led a debate this afternoon on bank branch closures - you can watch my speech in full here:

I'm leading a debate at Westminster today on bank branch closures, after recent announcements from RBS & TSB that their branches in Leith are set to close. We need action to protect face to face banking services. You can watch the debate here from 4pm:

The @TrussellTrust has seen a 36% jump in pensioners using food banks in just 6 months - but still the UK spends less on state pensions & benefits for pensioners than most other wealthy countries. When will the UK Govt wake up & take the scandal of pensioner poverty seriously?
