The SNP has ignored public services in favour of their ideology and performative politics for 19 years.
This election is about your public services: Housing, Health, Schools.
If they had the answers, they would have fixed the problems by now.

'Do you know how humiliating that is?'
Spending the final day of the campaign trail with John Swinney in Hamilton where voters confronted him over mould, elderly care failures and soaring business rates in a town centre marked by visible decline.

Even Reform's own candidates don't support Reform anymore.
Vote for real change on 7th May with me in Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse and @ScottishLabour on your regional ballot.

Great to be out in Blantyre this morning chatting with local residents alongside our fantastic candidates, @MonicaLennon7 and @DavyRussell4HLS.
People are ready for change, and Scottish Labour are ready to deliver it.

NEW: Reform’s candidate for East Kilbride Dr Tim Kelly quits.
It comes after my stories on him being a covid vaccine sceptic and someone who has said he does not care at all about carbon dioxide in relation to climate change.
I've resigned from Reform UK and will continue my campaign in East Kilbride as an Independent.

Why is the SNP always good at losing money? Where does the money go, John? #STVDebate
It is structural poverty that has been NEGLECTED by 20 years of Swinney's SNP Government. For too many, where you are born defines where you will go.
Only @ScottishLabour and @AnasSarwar as FM are prepared to give it the attention it needs. #STVDebate

Too many children are being let down by the SNP’s broken status quo.
Scottish Labour will tackle structural poverty and help every young person succeed. #STVdebate
With local hospital services crumbling, funding for the new Monklands hospital is now in doubt because of irresponsible financial mismanagement from the Scottish Government.
Don't give a third decade to the SNP. Vote for a New Direction on 7th May.

Today's Sunday Mail front page leads on John Swinney being accused of planning secret budget cuts to fill a £5billion black hole if he wins the Holyrood election #ScotPapers

Nearly 20 years in power.
NHS pressure. Schools slipping. Promises broken.
Scotland deserves better.
Vote tactically to stop the SNP. It’s time for change.

The right candidate can make all the difference. Vote for a new direction in the Scottish Parliament on 7th May.

Great to be out in beautiful Ashgill this afternoon. Some really positive conversations on the doors.
We also spoke with the first of our postal voters so make sure you get your ballots filled so that we can bring a new @ScottishLabour government for Scotland from 7th May.
The SNP's planned downgrade of Wishaw neonatal unit is something @jackiebmsp and I have opposed throughout this year.
Parents of premature babies cannot be expected to commute as far as Aberdeen to be by their side.
The NHS isn't safe under the SNP.

The NHS is not safe with John Swinney and the SNP.
A Scottish Labour government will step in and protect Scotland's neonatal services.

I have met countless people in Paisley with similar stories of lengthy waits for treatment.
People in pain having to pay thousands of their own money to go private.
Scotland needs new energy, new ideas and new leadership with @scottishlabour. #BBCDN
I'll restore the NHS to its founding principles of being free and available at the point of need. #bbcdn
Stories that I hear from constituents could make you weep. People in pain, immobile or scarred, left on waiting lists for years and years. The health minister and First minister know they are letting people down, but they don't lift a finger. #bbcdn

How many people are stuck on an NHS waiting list for over two years? John Swinney doesn't have a clue. #BBCDN

The change Scotland needs 🏴 👇
I will hand the NHS back to the people it truly belongs to - not incompetent SNP ministers but staff and patients. #BBCDN
