It's the opening ceremony of the seventh session of the Scottish Parliament today. My Sister, Elaine, was part of my great start in life, and I'm pleased she's here at the start of this parliamentary term.

Every parliamentary term, @scotlink.bsky.social offers MSPs the opportunity to become a Nature Champion, for Scotland’s threatened and iconic species and habitats So, I will now be championing brown long-eared bats for the next five years (as well as everyone who lives in Aberdeen Donside!)

Viewers are going to be far from happy with the idea that their local news will be no longer be local Earlier this week, I spoke in Jack Middleton's members debate, calling for STV North News to be saved, and talking about why local news matters.

I had a wonderful time at Aberdeen's Treasure Hub this morning, getting to see how some of our city's history is being looked after.

Keir Starmer may have finally clocked out, but I've been out and about in my constituency this morning. Who can guess where I was?

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 20/06/2026

Last month, I wrote to the Labour UK Government after it chose support Russia rather than local energy jobs. I asked how the UK Government was going to mitigate the devastating impact of its energy policy in Aberdeen. The reply didn't answer, so I have asked again.

After a historic win against Haiti, let's get right behind our boys against Morocco tonight! Good luck!

In 5 years as an MSP, a Tory representing Aberdeen has not once bothered to write to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero He's asked questions about salt sachets & flags but not bothered to contact the Energy Secretary about our city's major industry www.aberdeenlive.news/news/aberdee...

Douglas Lumsden cost the taxpayer around £185,000 with 1,339 AI-generated questions about salt sachets and flagpoles But at wasteful Westminster, it's estimated it costs £237 to answer a question. So Douglas's AI-antics would have cost the taxpayer £326,349 if he'd been an MP

Today, the Scottish Government has announced an extra £600,000 of funding for Our Union Street Union Street is home to so much of what folk love about Aberdeen, and that's why @snp.org is supporting our city centre with this investment

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 16/06/2026

The Tories barely lifted a finger as 70,000 oil & gas jobs were lost on their watch, but signed-off on nuclear powers plants in England costing £87 billion Meanwhile, The @snp.org Scottish Government's Just Transition Fund is investing £500 million to support energy jobs in North East Scotland

All the best to our boys in b̶l̶u̶e̶ p̶i̶n̶k̶ salmon against Haiti tonight There's even a bank holiday on Monday to ensure that as many people as possible have the chance to enjoy our first appearance at the World Cup since 1998

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 12/06/2026

This morning I met with representatives from the Falkland Islands Government, to learn about their Sea Lion oil development, and how local companies based in Aberdeen could support that. Governments are travelling from 8,000 miles away to meet and learn about our world-class energy workforce!

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

A brief history of the Energy Profits Levy. Introduced by the Tories. Increased by Labour. Costing thousands of energy workers their jobs. Only @snp.org can be trusted to stand up for local jobs in Aberdeen.

022

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 10/06/2026

70,000 oil & gas jobs were lost under the last Tory government. OEUK figures show there 153,000 people were working in oil & gas in 2010. By 2023, that had collapsed to just 83,700. A fall of 43% while the Tories were in charge. Scotland's energy should be in Scotland's hands.

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 05/06/2026

While the Tories' windfall tax was destroying jobs in Scotland, it's been revealed that Kemi Badenoch gave a £600 million backing for an energy plant in Belgium! The Tories may support energy jobs in Antwerp, but only @snp.org is standing up for energy workers in Aberdeen

Aberdonians deserve public transport that works for them, which is reliable, affordable, and gets them across our city Today, I was pleased to see what Aberdeen Rapid Transit will look when it comes to our city Find out where you can see this yourself at www.aberdeenrapidtransit.org

BROKEN | Despite its huge value and popularity locally, STV North News is going to end. London-based Ofcom has signed-off London-based Rufus Radcliffe's proposal earlier today. Once again, Aberdeen is worse-off due to decisions taken in London.

Great to visit Techfest today, the North-East of Scotland’s annual festival of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths If you want something fun and free to do with the kids this weekend, then head along to RGU this Saturday and Sunday, between 9.30am and 4pm

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

At First Minister's Questions, I asked about the impact of a 13% rise in the energy price cap. The UK Government have utterly failed to bring down energy bills and families across energy-rich Scotland are paying the price. It's time to put Scotland's energy in Scotland's hands.

021

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 27/05/2026

In my first speech since the election, I spoke about my ambitions for Aberdeen: That Aberdeen becomes a Net Zero capital, securing the legacy of North Sea oil, That folk in our energy capital don't have to worry about their energy bills, And that no bairn goes to bed hungry.

032

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 27/05/2026

Labour want renewables but no oil. Tories and Reform want oil but no renewables. Jobs in Aberdeen rely on both. Don't let the unionists tell us we have to choose. It's all Scotland's energy, and we should be able to have it all.

131

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

The Labour UK Government is choosing to support Russia rather than local energy jobs. It's shameful and I have written to Ed Miliband asking for him to reconsider his priorities.

My partner Don & daughter Dawn came to see me being sworn in as the MSP for Aberdeen Donside today. I also wore one of Muriel Jaffrey's bracelets today. She was an SNP member for 69 years, a force of nature in the Bridge of Don, and tireless campaigner for Scottish independence.

And let's not forget the first steps, freezing pensioners by cutting the Winter Fuel Allowance and letting children go hungry by keeping the Child Cap in place. It's time for change, it's time for Keir Starmer to go.

Getting my official photo today 📸 This should look a lot better than the campaign selfies I've been posting for the last few weeks 🤳😅

Great day for @theSNP campaigning in Aberdeen Donside, not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket 😉 The big date for your diaries should be 7 May though, all you need is to make it #BothVotesSNP. #ActiveSNP

Yesterday was the final day of the @ScotParl session, and it has been an absolute privilage serving the people of Aberdeen Donside over the last five years. As we move into the campaign period, and as I seek re-election on the 7 May 2026, there are couple of changes👇🏻

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 18/03/2026

Thank you to Mark Williams for coming to the Education and Young People committee today, to talk about the amazing work that Denis Law Legacy Trust does. Folk across Aberdeen have seen the trust changing lives and benefiting communities. I'm pleased that it's now being seen in @parliament.scot too.

Last week, along with the First Minister, MSPs put politics aside and supported staff at @STVNews in opposing the cuts to STV North Tonight. Have your say 👉🏻 bit.ly/3LTQlfC

Your @theSNP @scotgov 2026/27 Budget will be rolling out breakfast clubs for every primary school child by August 2027. This gives children the best start to the day, saves parents a bit of money, and allowing them to get on with their busy day during the working week.

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 19/12/2025

Last week, I had the chance to visit the Royal Mail delivery office in Mastrick, and to speak with the hard-working posties delivering to communities across AB15 and AB16. They're doing a great job while dealing with a huge increase in parcels (and the fire alarm going off 😅).

It's Scotland's Energy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚡️ Scotland is an energy-rich nation. A vast amount of low-cost, renewable energy is produced here. Yet we pay some of the highest energy bills in Europe. Read more about our plans for a fresh start with lower energy bills at www.snp.org/campaigns/en...

While NHS staff in England are still disgracefully fined for parking while caring for patients, in Scotland @thesnp @scotgov put an end to this. This action by @theSNP @scotgov has saved staff and patients over £90 million since 2008, by scrapping hospital parking charges.

Jackie Dunbar SNP @jackiedunbarsnp.bsky.social · 24/10/2025

@snp.org Scottish Government are investing in the Oil and Gas Transition Training Fund, to allow more of our highly skilled work force to take on different roles in the sustainable energy sector. People are our city’s biggest asset, and I am glad to see this investment in our workforce.
