It was great to meet @BenMSYP in Westminster yesterday and hear about the brilliant work the Scottish Youth Parliament does. Ben is a fantastic representative and champion for Clackmannanshire! 👏

🚨 NEW: The Government has confirmed plans to lower the voting age to 16 for all UK elections

It was great to meet with local MP’s @BrianLeishmanMP and @GraemeDownieMP in London at our Votes at 16 campaign drop in. I’m grateful for their time, support, and commitment to youth voice within Clackmannanshire and their advocacy for vulnerable groups in the constituency.

Apprenticeships need to be valued as a serious option, not treated as a second choice. Clackmannanshire’s young people deserve real opportunities, not underfunded schemes and empty promises from the Scottish Government. Read my column on this below: alloaadvertiser.com/news/25241567.…

A decade on, the balance of the evidence confirms that outcomes in Scottish education declined on Sturgeon’s watch and that children from the poorest families shouldered the worst of it. ✍️ Stephen Daisley spectator.co.uk/article/how-th…

If you're a pension-age couple with a combined income of just under £70,000 a year, the government will give you taxpayers' money to pay your energy bills with. If you're a family earning a fraction of that amount and struggling to keep your children warm this winter, no help…

Working together to make sure all young people get the opportunities they deserve.

My column for the Alloa Advertiser this month focuses on the rising trend of hateful far-right politics among young people. This is deeply concerning, and decision makers must enable meaningful youth participation to prevent the rise of the far right and its threat to democracy.

"What we do today in politics has an impact, not just today and the next week and the next month, but actually on the future generations." @GlasgowPam has lodged a motion in parliament to acknowledge the launch of the @OfficialSYP consultations on their 2026 manifesto.
