The SNP Scottish Child Payment is supporting 20,905 children and young people in Edinburgh. The SNP is delivering for all across Scotland. In Central Edinburgh it is a 2 horse race between the Tories and the SNP - #VoteSNP to keep the Tories out.

It is great that the UK is rejoining Erasmus+. However, in so doing, it demonstrates how Brexit has only harmed opportunity for young people, and that we are missing out on many other benefits of EU membership, too. Scotland must rejoin the EU as a full independent member state.

The BBC risks losing its independence when partisan outrage becomes the driving force. It must uphold rigorous editorial standards — not bow to politically-fuelled pressure campaigns.

Constituents have been in touch about the changing GP landscape. Happy to inform that the Scottish Government is stepping up investment to meet demand. An additional £531 million of funding has been announced for GPs in next 3 years.

Following the Labour council’s cuts to health and social care provision, organisations in Edinburgh Central are doing all they can to secure further funding.
