It’s hard to believe it’s been six months. From firefighters and teachers to politicians, trade unionists, and families — chanting, dancing and filling the streets with hope. The biggest anti-racist march in UK history. We must keep marching on.

Today I sent a letter to the Minister inviting her to join me on a visit to Larbert. I believe it would be worthwhile for us both to visit the site of this proposed hyper-scale data centre in my region, and to meet with residents, business owners and campaigners to hear their concerns.
Dear Minister,

I am writing to formally invite you to visit the site in Larbert, within my region, where an application has been made for a hyper-scale AI Data Centre.

I believe a visit would provide you with a valuable opportunity to meet with local business owners, campaigners, and residents who have serious concerns about this proposal.

Since being re-elected to the Scottish Parliament my inbox has been inundated with correspondence from constituents. These local residents are worried about the increased traffic, noise and pollution such a proposal will bring, but moreover they are extremely concerned about the vast amounts of energy this site will consume, potentially affecting their community's resources and contributing to environmental degradation.

During your visit, I would be honoured to facilitate a short roundtable discussion with local stakeholders.

I understand your schedule is very demanding, but I hope you will take the time to consider this invitation.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
