Strong support for our fantastic candidate, @monicalennon.bsky.social, in Cambuslang this morning. Only Scottish Labour can beat the SNP here. It’s time for a Scottish Government that focusses on the issues that matter to people, getting the basics right and renewing our public services.

Lovely sunny sessions in Cambuslang today and a warm response on the doors for our candidate, @monicalennon.bsky.social. 🌞 After two wasted decades, Rutherglen & Cambuslang needs a fresh start - Scottish Labour is best placed to beat the SNP and deliver the change our communities need.🌹

Four seasons in a few hours in Blantyre today but that won’t stop Scottish Labour from listening to people discussing their priorities. Our candidate, @monicalennon.bsky.social, is from here and understands the issues that matter to the community. Vote for a new direction on May 7th.🌹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

🌞 Lovely sunny morning in High Blantyre and a warm reception on the doors for our fantastic candidate, @monicalennon.bsky.social. Only Scottish Labour can beat the SNP here and deliver the change Scotland needs. On 7th May, choose delivery over division and decline. 🌹❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A Scottish Labour government will improve access to cancer screening and faster diagnosis, as part of our plan to finally deliver Scotland’s lifesaving 62-day waiting times standard, which has not been met since 2012. It’s time for change.

Brilliant reception in Blantyre! From her world-leading Period Poverty Act to her landmark Ecocide Bill, @monicalennon.bsky.social has a track record of delivery. Rutherglen & Cambuslang needs an MSP who gets things done and that’s Monica. Only Scottish Labour can beat the SNP here. 🌹

Scotland’s NHS needs saving after 20 years of the SNP. A Scottish Labour government led by Anas Sarwar will: ⏰End the 8am GP appointment rush. 👩‍⚕️Bring back the family doctor. 💥Smash bureaucracy and invest in front line services. 🧠Establish a new mental health emergency service.

Lots of support for our brilliant candidate, @monicalennon.bsky.social, in Rutherglen this morning. After almost 20 years of SNP failure, people here are ready for a fresh start - only Scottish Labour can beat them. It’s time to choose delivery over division and decline. 🌹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

Labour is lifting half a million children out of poverty across the UK, including 95,000 in Scotland. Meanwhile, Nigel Farage is happy to keep kids in poverty to take 5p off of a pint. Child poverty is a scourge on our society and this Labour government is confronting it.

Tonight along with my Labour colleagues we voted to scrap the two child limit - a decision that will lift 95,000 Scottish children out of poverty. The Tories and Reform voted against that. Labour is tackling child poverty and giving every child the best possible start in life.

Busy speaking to local residents in Burnside today where it’s a huge privilege to be the Scottish Labour candidate for Rutherglen, Cambuslang and Blantyre. The constituency is in the Glasgow parliamentary region. If you’re a member please consider giving me your 1st preference vote in the ballot.

Great response in Burnside this morning. Only Scottish Labour can beat the SNP in Rutherglen & Cambuslang and people here know that. It’s time to turn the page on two decades of SNP incompetence and elect a government that focusses on the people’s priorities.

Fantastic team effort on the doorstep with Daniel Johnson MSP this morning. No love for the SNP or their tired and out of touch Government in Buckstone that’s for sure!

Real frustration at declining educational standards and having to wait years for NHS treatment in today’s Cambuslang session. After two decades of SNP failure, there’s an appetite for change - many here know that Scottish Labour is best placed to beat them and deliver that.

This week: 📈Higher growth than expected. 📉Lower NHS waiting lists in England. 🛜Confronted AI Grok deepfakes. 🚝Northern Powerhouse Rail announced. 💨Record offshore wind auction will lower bills and create jobs in Scotland and across UK. This Labour government is delivering.

Unsurprisingly, after inviting Scots to judge them on it, the SNP is not prioritising education. With a stubborn attainment gap, lack of ASN support, behaviour crisis in our schools and broken promises on teacher recruitment, the SNP is failing Scotland’s next generation.

This May, it’s a choice between more SNP decline or a fresh start with Scottish Labour. Our candidate, @monicalennon.bsky.social, grew up in Blantyre and knows what matters to our communities. With a track record of delivery, Monica will be a strong voice for Rutherglen & Cambuslang.

What this Labour government has achieved in its first year, a 🧵: 💷 Increasing NMW, giving over 200,000 Scots a pay rise. 🌡️ Giving 500,000 households £150 off their energy bills. 💪 Enhancing workers’ rights. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Record £50bn funding for Scotland. 🏠 Average mortgage down by £1,000.

A year ago, @michaelshanksmp.co.uk was elected in Rutherglen as Scots voted for a Labour government. Michael and his team are fighting relentlessly for our communities. Next year, Scots can reject almost two decades of SNP failure at Holyrood and choose a new direction with Scottish Labour.

Across our community, people depend on the 65 bus - that’s why First Bus must reverse its decision to cancel this vital service. Please sign @michaelshanksmp.co.uk’s petition below to save the 65. People in Cambuslang and Rutherglen deserve better! michaelshanksmp.co.uk/65-bus-petit...

Biggest budget for the Scottish Government since devolution. Instead of SNP distraction we need a government with plans to invest that in improving the lives of the people of Scotland.

Major investment into UK offshore wind supply chains today. Great British Energy catalysing investment into our ports and factories - our clean energy mission in action. Great to be at the Global Offshore Wind conference today to hear about the impact it will have. www.gov.uk/government/n...

🚨A fantastic #LabourGain. Hamilton, Larkhall & Stonehouse has chosen a new direction with Scottish Labour. People have given their backing to a local man who cares about the community he lives in - Davy Russell will be an excellent representative for his area. Onwards to 2026. 🌹💪

In Hamilton, Larkhall & Stonehouse, a vote for Davy Russell is a vote for someone who will put their community first. On 5th June, vote Scottish Labour and elect a local champion who is on the side of the people.🌹💪

The SNP are the architects of austerity in Scotland. For years, they have inflicted swingeing cuts on council budgets like South Lanarkshire’s and people are paying the price. In Hamilton, Larkhall & Stonehouse, Scottish Labour’s Davy Russell is the local champion his community needs. 🌹

So he’s off and running 🏃‍♂️please support Michael and donate to these fantastic local charities!

🏃‍♂️Our MP, @michaelshanksmp.co.uk, is running this year’s London marathon to raise money for two fantastic local charities in @clydecyclepark.bsky.social and Camglen Buddies. If you’re able to, please do make a donation and support these two worthy causes. www.justgiving.com/page/michael...

One final run before the marathon and made it to the 40km marker (without the preceding 40kms!!) Last plea for donations for two brilliant local charities - michaelshanksmp.co.uk/marathon Good luck to everyone taking on the London Marathon tomorrow!

If you live in the Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse constituency, vote for Scottish Labour’s Davy Russell on Thursday 5th June! He’ll give communities there the strong representation they need. 🌹💪

Thank you to everyone who opened their doors to us in Hamilton despite the weather today! It was great to talk to you. ☔️🌹

In Davy Russell, members have nominated someone who will stand up for their constituents at every turn. If you live in Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse, vote for Scottish Labour on 5th June to bring about the change your community needs.

The SNP: specialists in rewarding failure. NHS patients and staff deserve better.

After almost two decades of SNP mismanagement, our public services are weaker and Scots are being forced to pay the price. Scotland needs a new direction - a Scottish Labour government, led by Anas Sarwar as First Minister, will deliver the change people need.

This Labour government is taking action to protect our industrial future.

We send our very best wishes to all those who are celebrating Pesach. Passover is one of the most significant Jewish festivals, rich in symbolism as the remarkable story of the Exodus - the liberation of the Hebrew people - is remembered. Chag Pesach Sameach. ✡️

Great to be out in sunny Drumsagard speaking to people about their priorities. Despite the efforts of hardworking staff, our NHS is in crisis after 18 years of the SNP. A Scottish Labour government will reform the NHS, properly resourcing frontline services and cutting waiting lists.

A glorious day for sharing our positive vision in the Costa Del Cambuslang.🌞 Three in four Scots think our public services are worse now than they were five years ago - that’s down to SNP mismanagement and incompetence. It’s time to chart a different course with Scottish Labour at the helm.🌹

Constituents get in touch with me every day about the problems they have getting the health care they need. I've supported as many as I can, but too many are suffering, stuck on waiting lists - or struggling to be seen in the first place. It shouldn't be this way.

A beautiful morning in Halfway, speaking to people about the issues that matter to them. Lots of really positive conversations.🌞 Scotland’s public services have been poorly served by almost two decades of SNP incompetence - it’s time for a new direction with Scottish Labour. 🌹

Weekly update from @michaelshanksmp.co.uk below! 👇

On your street not just at election time. Your local Labour MP and the team are working hard for the community.

Sunny Saturday street surgery to start the weekend - thanks for some great conversations in Halfway today. On your street not just at election time - get in touch - michaelshanksmp.co.uk/get-in-touch

Tonight, Labour MPs voted for the biggest boost to workers’ rights in a generation, including: ✅ Banning exploitative zero hour contracts. ✅ Ending fire and rehire. ✅ Strengthening sick pay. ✅ Rights from day one. The Tories and Reform - including ‘man of the people’ Nigel Farage - voted against.

In the Rutherglen by-election 524 days ago I pledged we would make work pay and deliver a new deal for working people. Today our Labour Government delivered on that and workers across Rutherglen and every other community in the UK will benefit.

The Employment Rights Bill will enhance workers’ rights across Britain. This is the difference Labour makes in power, delivering the change working people deserve.

Voting on the landmark Employment Rights Bill in Parliament - our new deal for working people and the biggest upgrade to rights at work in a generation. 🔴day one rights in work 🔴strengthening sick pay 🔴ending fire and rehire 🔴banning exploitative zero hour contracts

Productive campaign session in Cambuslang today. After eighteen years of SNP misgovernment, Scotland needs a new direction - a Scottish Labour government will deliver it. 🌹

Strong backing for our plan for households near new pylons to save hundreds on their energy bills. This new essential energy infrastructure will benefit the whole country by delivering energy security and bringing down bills. www.gov.uk/government/n...

Brilliant response in sunny Oatlands today, where some of our CLP joined the team campaigning ahead of the Southside Central by-election. If you live here, on 20th March, vote for Scottish Labour’s Samina Rashid! 🌹
