I am a Borderer through and through and that’s never going to change. I’m proudly putting myself forward to represent our area. While others’ sole ambition is to simply stop me, I am putting forward a positive platform for everyone. If elected, I will never stop fighting for you and your family.

A busy day supporting SNP candidate @johnredpathsnp.bsky.social in Selkirk yesterday. If this week has proven anything - it’s that it has to be SNP on the 7th of May. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I'm pretty sure (I haven't run back through all results, I have a dug to talk for a sunny walk) this is the first by-election in quite some time where the SNP's two candidate preferred share is higher than in 2022, not merely slumping less badly than Labour's.

📢 I’m standing to be the SNP candidate for my home constituency of Ettrick, Roxburgh & Berwickshire. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Rachael Hamilton and the Tories have taken the Borders for granted for far too long. It’s time for a fresh start.
