Very significant and welcome news. A genuine EU accession track could be hugely influential in spurring and supporting Bosnian domestic reforms safeguarding peace and prosperity @RemSrebScot
RT @CharlesMichel: Bosnia and Herzegovina was granted the status of candidate country today.
A strong signal to the people, but also a clear expectation for the new authorities to deliver on reforms.
The future of the Western Balkans is in the #EU
Congratulations!

Stimulating start to the morning with a chat with @AMSalamone @euromerchants and some of @theSNP Westminster team on Europe and EU. And a wee trip down memory lane with a reference to our own Scotland IN Europe book 📚

@irishagreement Fair comment, though I went for the most defensible stat to make the point that what is being offered falls well short of what a clear majority want and that’s quite a democratic deficit.

A recent poll states 54% of the people of Northern Ireland are in favour of EU membership. I want to see a negotiated settlement between the EU and the UK, but the NI Protocol Bill stands in the way of that.
My question to the Foreign Secretary today:

Three years ago today, the people of Stirling put their trust in me - and it's been a privilege to represent them through the turmoil and triumphs since. It's always an immense pleasure to serve.

This makes perfect sense and fits with views in Scotland. Rejoining the EU is, for many, more important than reticence to constitutional change. “Majority in Northern Ireland favours rejoining EU” from @IrishTimes https://www.irishtimes.com/politics/2022/12/12/majority-in-northern-ireland-favours-rejoining-european-union/

RT @theSNP: 📣 @AlynSmith: "Labour has bought into the big lie in UK politics that somehow Brexit can be made to work.
It can be made to be less chaotic, but it will always be a poorer outcome than EU membership – no ifs, no ands, no buts."

Very sad to see my pal leave the front bench, he has brought SNP thinking and credibility on Defence a massive leap forward. He’ll also always be #teamSNP and still has a huge role to play.
RT @StewartMcDonald: Serving as my party’s defence spokesperson has been a job I’ve loved. Today I’ve decided it’s time for a change.
I wish @StephenFlynnSNP and @MhairiBlack every success. I’ll be cheering them on from the backbenches.
