Indications from the US that air strikes will increase are deeply troubling.
My team are helping constituents stranded in the Middle East and I know how worried these families are, as are relatives who are desperately waiting for them to get home safely.

I stand with Ceri Menai-Davis, lead campaigner of #HughsLaw, in pushing for statutory paid leave for parents whose child is battling serious illness.
No traumatised parent should face poverty when their child desperately needs them by their side, holding their hand.

Today marks 80 years since victory over Japan, the moment the Second World War finally came to an end.
An opportunity to pay our respects and remember all veterans of the Far East, who served with courage and distinction in the battle for freedom in Asia and the Pacific.

Scotland's public services have flatlined under nearly 20 years of the SNP, while England's are improving.
An extra Β£9.1 bn is coming to Scotland over the next three years.
The SNP now have no more excuses for failure. The people of Scotland need - and deserve - better.

On World Parkinson's Day, I stand with @parkinsons.org.uk
in calling for progress for 153,000 patients across the UK - for timely access to specialist care, clear information, joined-up services and a renewed focus on finding a cure.
This is the bare minimum those living with Parkinsonβs deserve

Family of man found badly decomposed in caravan seek police apology
Fife-born John Reddington's family say they were dismissed by Police Scotland and West Mercia Police after they raised concerns about him.
The way John Reddington's case was dealt with by police at all levels needs to be reviewed, so lessons can be learned and no family has to go through the anxiety and pain the Connor family endured.

As fewer survivors remain to warn young generations of horrors of the Holocaust, we must carry their lessons forward - and stand against all forms of hate and prejudice.
Today, the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, is more important than ever. #HMD2025

Oasis tickets: musicΒ fans deserve fair priced tickets, not dynamic pricing
Thousands of people are happy itβs 2025 for one very good reason. Oasis.
Music fans are being ripped off by 'dynamic pricing' and greedy ticket touts.
The UK Government has launched a consultation to look at new measures to put fans firmly back at the heart of the live events sector.

Neil Gray urged to intervene in Β£100m row over NHS mental health funding
EXCLUSIVE: A group of Scottish Labour figures have demanded the SNP Health Secretary steps in to help secure new investment for crumbling facilities in Fife.
The SNP need to explain why they have deprioritised Fife.
We urgently need proper support to tackle the mental health crisis; @graemedowniemp.bsky.social @richardbakermp.bsky.social @clairebakermsp.bsky.social & I have written to the Scottish Gov to demand this

Glenrothes MP backs calls for new commission to improve care for terminally ill patients
A Fife MP has backed Gordon Brownβs call for a new commission to improve care for terminally ill patients.
In Fife in 2023, 25% of working-age people who died, died in poverty, compared to 14% of pension-age people
These @mariecurieuk.bsky.social statistics are shocking. People should be able to spend the last months and years of life focusing on what really matters - not worrying about how to pay bills
