A lot of good sense in this from @nealerichmond. Anything that undermines peace in Northern Ireland will have total and unanimous opposition from @theSNP.

The rhetoric we’re seeing in some quarters about ‘unelected foreign judges’ is dangerous, reckless and ahistorical. The whole point of the @coe, that the UK helped to create, is to protect human rights.
Un grand plaisir de parler à @francobritish #FBYoungLeaders à Westminster sur l’indépendance, les relations entre l’Écosse et l’UE et les liens profonds de l’Écosse avec la France 🇫🇷 🏴 🇪🇺

The service disruption on our railways next week is set to be severe - alternative plans should be in place for those relying on public transport.
@KeithBrownSNP and I have written to @NetworkRailSCOT leadership to seek assurances.

There’s great things happening in Stirling - we’re bursting with ideas and the talented folks needed to take them forward.
Happy to put my support behind this pilot and encourage investment in our businesses and communities.

Conversion therapy is an abhorrent practice which has no place in an inclusive, tolerant, democratic society. As legislators, we have a responsibility to formulate laws fit for purpose and protect the citizens we serve - my contribution to this week's Westminster Hall debate.
RT @PeterKGeoghegan: The influence of think tanks who do not declare their donors - like Policy Exchange - is too often ignored in British politics.
Tomorrow (Thursday 16th 5pm GMT) I will be discussing if these think tanks are bad for British democracy with @AlynSmith

A productive conversation with @ScotRail reps, discussing pandemic recovery and ongoing service disruptions. I’m acutely aware of constituent concerns, particularly in Dunblane.
Talks with trade unions continue, with everyone striving for a reasoned settlement.
