In between rain showers, we spoke with many residents in Hawick. Thanks for chatting with us during the Lions game! 😉 Lots of issues such as SNP making a mess of Scotland, extending Borders rail and stopping the cuts to Hawick fire station.

I met Sandy Peggie and ⁦@jk_rowling⁩ is correct. Whatever the outcome of the trial, Sandy has triumphed over an ideological, political and intellectual class war by standing up for women in the workplace (and everywhere). ❤️ Go Sandy! thetimes.com/article/2f75b2…

💪 I am delighted to support the campaign to save the Bernat Klein studio, near Selkirk after raising the plight of the building with the Cabinet Secretary for Culture in Parliament.

A great afternoon in Cockburnspath and Cove speaking to local residents. Many are concerned about the future of the local nursery and primary school. I will continue to work with parents and communities to ensure these vital local services are protected.

Labour’s immoral family farm tax is destroying livelihoods and will wipe out generations of hard work. When the @Conservatives return to government, we will reverse it. No ifs, no buts. Standing up for our farmers is standing up for Britain.

This is Nicola Sturgeon's legacy: a government that publicly backs the hapless, unprofessional, ideologically captured health board that's persecuting a nurse for asserting her legal right to a single-sex changing room. thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/fife/5…

Rightly so! It is an utter disgrace that Sandie Peggie has been dragged through these allegations of misconduct because she stood up for women's rights. heraldscotland.com/news/25316918.…

Just get on with it John Swinney. Even ⁦@UNSRVAW⁩ agrees. Why is the Scottish Government waiting for the EHRC to update guidance on implementing the Supreme Court decision? ⁦@ForWomenScot⁩ ⁦@SexMattersOrg⁩ ⁦@jk_rowling⁩ thetimes.com/article/deda0f…

A stunning day in Denholm speaking to local residents ☀️ The main issues raised were the proposed cuts to Hawick Fire Station, the extension of the Borders Railway and the lack of affordable housing. If you need help with anything, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Misogyny is a serious, but how can anyone trust the SNP to tackle it when they still can’t define what a woman is? thetimes.com/article/4db3c6…

There is an ongoing issue with access to cash across the Scottish Borders. I met with the FCA to stress the issues rural towns are facing and ask them to take action so we can get more banking hubs and improve services for local people.

Pleasure to catch up with @edbarkerAIC from @Agindustriesuk. We touched on gene editing, the impact of Labour's Family Farm Tax and other issues facing the farming industry. I will continue to champion rural Scotland and do all I can to support Scotland's farmers.

6 SNP politicians back a motion to outlaw the IDF, comparing them to terrorists. 👇 If they got their way, Israel would be wiped out by Iran and its proxies Hamas, Hezbollah etc. Has John Swinney got anything to say about his party's antisemitic poison? thetimes.com/article/fd52e1…

📍Scone Palace, Perthshire. It's the Scottish Game Fair this weekend. Along with my deputy @Rachael2Win, it was great to meet so many champions of rural Scotland. And thanks to @BASCnews for our clay pigeon shooting lessons.
