The Liberal Democrats are winning all over the Highlands. More and more people are switching to us because they see that we are focused on the issues that matter and they know that we are best placed to beat the SNP.

Next month I’ll be joining a convoy delivering 5 ambulances from London to Ukraine. Through Europe nonstop, overland and overnight. If you want to support us, you can do so through the link below. The armed forces of Ukraine are the firebreak between tyranny and the free democracies of the west.

New research shows that there have been over 24,000 violent incidents reported in Scotland's schools so far this school year. Pupils shouldn’t be going to school afraid. Teachers deserve to know this government has their back.

Delayed ferries, over budget, painted on windows, a leaking hull, the short cables, cheaper to scrap and start again. Yet not one SNP minister has resigned as a result of this series of catastrophes over many years.

Such a great launch for @adamharley.bsky.social’s campaign to become the next MSP for Strathkelvin and Bearsden. After Susan Murray’s victory in July he’s got a great chance to be their next MSP

While the scale of the job losses at Dundee are huge, this has not come as a bolt from the blue. The Government had plenty of warning that cuts were coming. We need progress on an urgent review of funding arrangements before other universities join Dundee in making steep cuts.

For years under the SNP our A&E departments have been left mired in crisis and it's leading to staff burning out. We cannot fix these A&E waits without fixing the problems in social care to create the capacity needed to get people seen on time.

More than ever, this Commonwealth Day Britain must stand with our Commonwealth partners and allies. The Prime Minister should visit Ottawa to meet Canada’s new leader, Mark Carney, and show support as Canada faces growing threats to its sovereignty and economy.

Following the suspension of US military aid and intelligence to Ukraine, it feels as if America could be on verge of a historic betrayal of Ukraine. The UK must now seize the billions in frozen Russian assets and use them to support Ukraine.

Nothing that Donald Trump has said or done has put any pressure on Vladimir Putin at all. Donald Trump is not a reliable ally with respect to Russia. As a result, we now have to look at how we construct a stronger alliance with our European colleagues.

‘Thank you for your attention on this matter.’ Is how my local council closes out letters advising of bin collection changes. Good to see it’s also useful to newly elected dictators in the suppression of free speech.

President Zelensky and the people of Ukraine are heroes. They deserve the steadfast support of the free world. With the suspension of US military aid to Ukraine overnight, the UK must now seize the billions in frozen Russian assets and use them to support Ukraine.

Starting to treasure mornings in the UK. While America sleeps it’s a chance for the rest of us to clear up the rubble of the night before, until chaos wakes up and comes at us once again. Only 3.8yrs to go.

This is more bad news for islanders. No matter where the ferries are coming from there seem to be delays. Ministers should set out whether taxpayers get any money back if there are delays to the delivery of these boats.

It’s so clear - this was never about whether Zelensky wore a suit. Trump and Farage are angry Ukraine dared to stand up to Putin in the first place and won’t surrender to him now.

The Ukrainian flag represents the blue sky over fields of Ukrainian wheat. It has a deeper meaning though. One which should give pause to anyone who thinks they will capitulate to Russian aggression. ‘Freedom above bread.’ Glory to Ukraine. 🇺🇦
