Last week, I met Jonathan from FareShare in Parliament.
FareShare redistributes surplus food to communities across the UK and works with amazing partners in Stirling & Strathallan, like Start Up Stirling, and The Larder in Corton.
We discussed their work tackling food waste and supporting families.

🌿 Last week I joined the HTA for their “Plants in Parliament” event 🌱 Horticulture could be worth £40bn by 2030, supporting jobs, rural economies, health & our environment. Great to discuss how we can champion this vital sector and help it grow!

Forestry isn’t just about trees — it’s about people, places and prosperity.
I was delighted to sponsor Confor's event in Parliament to bring MPs together to show how investing in UK forestry can create over 40,000 rural jobs, strengthen local economies, and help Britain hit Net Zero. 🌲💚

Yesterday, the United Kingdom, alongside Canada and Australia, recognised the state of Palestine.
Recognition is an essential step in the process towards a two-state solution.
What must follow now is an immediate ceasefire, the release of hostages, and urgent aid getting into Gaza.

🎙️I spoke with Central FM about the ongoing problems on the A84. Recent months have shown how dangerous this road is, yet Transport Scotland and the Scottish Government have failed to act urgently. Scottish Government ministers and officials must get around the table and deliver a proper solution now
