How A9 dualling scandal epitomises SNP's failure of rural Scotland scotsman.com/news/opinion/c…

Last week we had the pleasure of welcoming Alistair Carmichael, MP for Orkney & Shetland, to our HQ in Forres. Phil Chambers, Orbex CEO, shared a behind-the-scenes tour of our facilities, as we prepare for our first launch from SaxaVord Spaceport. 🚀 #JourneyToLaunch #LaunchUK

"Banning our own country's MPs is OK, actually" was not on my bingo card for the Conservative spokesperson in the House of Commons today.

Over the weekend, I visited Eilean Dubh Care Home with Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP🔶🇺🇦 and Angus MacDonald — a home that shows how much difference good care can make. Angus is a great champion for the Highlands’ care homes, making the case for urgent investment and support.

Nigel Farage and now Lee Anderson MP have come out in support of a chlorine-backed deal with Donald Trump. 🚨🚨 🟠 Liberal Democrats Rural Affairs spokesperson Tim Farron said this should remind all that 'Reform UK are the enemy of British farmers'. ❌ READ MORE:

Glad to join MPs across Parliament for RABI - the farmers charity's farming-focussed mental health training. Thanks to RABI for organising and to DEFRA for hosting - mental health is a serious issue in the farming community and so sessions like these are extremely useful.

Glad to have had final written confirmation this morning from the MCA that Oscar Charlie coastguard helicopter response times will indeed be protected, as was promised by the government in January. shetlandtimes.co.uk/2025/04/08/coa…

Challenging the Treasury bench today on the Chancellor's refusal to meet with farming representatives - and her refusal even to answer direct questions about the inheritance tax hike on farms in the House of Commons.

Well said Alistair Carmichael - who calls out Rachel Reeves for not meeting the farming industry. Her budget has hammered farmers, puts their livelihoods at risk and will force many farmers into selling their land. And she doesn’t have the guts to meet them. Shameful.

🎙️ In today's Farming in Five: - Efra Committee chair Alistair Carmichael MP calls out the Chancellor over her refusal to meet with farming groups 🚨 - Reform UK MPs under fire for their backing of chlorinated chicken US trade deal - UK dairy sector set to adapt to Trump's tariffs

Many Scots are feeling scunnered and politically homeless right now. There is a home for you with the Liberal Democrats if you believe in bringing decency and respect back into our politics, if you are open and outward looking.

🗣️ Efra Chair @amcarmichaeMP has accused Rachel Reeves of using ministers as ‘human shields' to escape answering questions on IHT. 🚨🛡️ "The Chancellor must meet with farming representatives before the farm tax comes into law." 📣 READ MORE 🔗 ow.ly/35lW50VxzaN

Why MSP's defection shows Tories risk disaster by mimicking Farage scotsman.com/news/opinion/c…

The Government is introducing new measures to protect farmers from the spread of foot and mouth disease. From Saturday 12th April, travellers can no longer bring personal meat and dairy products, from EU countries into GB. gov.uk/government/new…

Different parties, and I am never shy about my criticisms of Labour in government - but you could not ask for a better demonstration of the problems with Stephen Flynn's approach to politics than the contrast between his grievance-led, one-line jibe and Paul's response.
