Happy International Women's Day to all the women and non-binary MSPs, candidates, door-chappers, leaflet posters, branch organisers, manifesto drafters, policy makers, activists, ideas-people, comms people, sharers, carers, huggers and cryers. You are all amazing.

Dear @lucympowell.bsky.social,

I have enjoyed our exchange of letters about which of our parties is best placed to stop Reform. Hannah Spencer MP and I trust that you agree that this question has now been resolved once and for all.

Thanks,
