So many folk have been in touch about online safety.

Thanks to all the organisations helping us with our family support events.

Out in Oakley tonight with Scottish Labour candidiate for Dunfermline, Joe Long, and Scotland Office Minister, @kirstymcneill.bsky.social. The weather was rough and wild. The response from local people was warm and welcoming. Thanks to Kirsty for joining us.

37.8 MILLION pounds 🎉

🙌West Dunbartonshire has unlimited untapped potential and Labour has recognised that, allocating £60.9million for Glasgow & the West! 🏗️Thanks again to UK Minster for Scotland @kirstymcneill.bsky.social for visiting and seeing some of the incredible possibilities we have for this funding.

Some thoughts for advocates from my Policy Unstuck interview with @tomhashemi.bsky.social from Cast From Clay.

This is the difference a Labour government can make in a week.

Excellent interview with @kirstymcneill.bsky.social in the indispensable @policyunstuck.bsky.social newsletter: policyunstuck.castfromclay.co.uk/p/the-lived-... includes some thoughts about lived experience from the perspective of a policymaker.

All in.

#MiningLandscapes #Ecomuseum project’s community artist Yvonne YWL studios is celebrating with @kirstymcneill.bsky.social the loan of her painting Pit Head (inspired by the Lady Victoria Colliery) from National Mining Museum Scotland to the Scotland Office. Brilliant news Yvonne.

This is what delivery looks like 🌹

💜 We belong to clubs but just as importantly they belong to us.

I have an essay in this new collection from @labourcid.bsky.social and the @thefabians.bsky.social. My argument in it is simple: there is strength in numbers. fabians.org.uk/publication/...

Our new essay collection explores Labour’s relationship to the politics of community. In her essay, MP @kirstymcneill.bsky.social writes: “long-term, relational, power-building work should be our guide as we navigate the 2nd year of this still-young Labour government.” 🧵 1/2

Really great to hear @kirstymcneill.bsky.social at @coopparty.party.coop & @hopenothate.org.uk event talk about the importance of reviving social clubs - particularly in deprived areas - & the role they play in strengthening communities, tackling isolation & bringing people together.

Campaigning with and for clubs has been a big focus for me in year one of being an MP so I am absolutely hyper that the new government Pride in Place programme has hard-wired social clubs into decision-making. Life is better when we club together. 💜

We visited the Building Stronger Local Places event at the Mildmay Club, where Co-operative speaker @kirstymcneill.bsky.social made the case for social clubs as more than co-op history - but as a massive part of our communities' future.

Co-operative MP @kirstymcneill.bsky.social led a delegation of social clubs to Downing Street, meeting the people who bring communities together and championing the vital work they do. Social clubs are the beating heart of local life, and they deserve to be heard.

Delighted to see Clubland recommended in the Summer Reading List for Parliamentarians! I feel very grown up. Thank you @kirstymcneill.bsky.social

A thriving social club can go a long way to boosting community cohesion That's why tomorrow this Labour government will host a delegation of club members from across the UK to learn how we can help them thrive, writes @kirstymcneill.bsky.social

We’ve got a plan, and we want you to be part of it. While Reform sows division, we’re building a different politics: 🛠 Giving communities the right to save local spaces ⚡ Putting local people in control of new energy 🏘 Backing ownership that builds pride and trust

"Every summer Midlothian becomes a sea of bunting and buzzes with the sound of fun fairs as gala season begins." 💬 @kirstymcneill.bsky.social‬

Co-operators get things done. @kirstymcneill.bsky.social held the first Clubs Summit, bringing together social clubs from across Scotland as part of our Club Together campaign.

That’s the difference a Labour government with a plan and a willingness to fund it makes.

I guess I can’t stay in denial that this is really happening. Any support would be so appreciated.

Last week, Co-operative MP @kirstymcneill.bsky.social appeared on BBC Any Questions in a social club - here's what she had to say about the importance of social clubs to our communities and about our campaign to protect them.

Is it enough? No. Is it a start I’m proud of? Yes.

It's time for us to club together. 💃 Social clubs are the centre of so many of our communities, because they belong to us. We're campaigning with Kirsty McNeill MP to support social clubs. Join us! 🔗👇 party.coop/campaign/com...

This is a generational moment for our continent.

Piece in today’s Record for International Women’s Day.

Women who know their place.

A new direction for Scotland. Let’s go. #ScotLab25

This is what @scottishlabour.bsky.social MPs have been delivering.

Every day for the rest of the year - for the rest of my life in fact - the test is the same. Have we done enough today to build a country in which everyone is safe and everyone has enough? That’s the prize. Eyes on it. Great to speak to @hannahmargbrown.bsky.social at @heraldscotland.bsky.social
