Yesterday, I raised the urgent concerns I’m hearing from hospitality businesses in North East Fife. One local business expects costs to rise by £150,000 next year - they simply won’t survive without action. Our hospitality sector is in crisis, and the Government must listen.

I raised my constituent’s deeply distressing visa case in Parliament today - an 89-year-old, disabled Ukrainian refugee left without support or compassion. I was glad to hear the Minister commit to helping, and I’ll keep pushing for a swift and fair resolution for her.

Yesterday, I raised the importance of access to cash and access to banking services which are vital for many people in North East Fife, yet are rapidly dwindling in numbers.
I was glad to attend the banking hub surgery today to further discuss this.

I raised a case in Parliament where a constituent was stuck in ATAS visa delays - even after his father sadly passed away.
Despite ATAS being run by the FCDO, no one there seemed to know about ATAS, sending us in circles.
I’ve called for an urgent review so this doesn’t happen to others.

I've been speaking to constituents over the last few weeks about their expectations for the Budget, when I spoke to them over the weekend, many were disappointed.
From the Family Farm Tax to EV taxes and LHA to Scotch whisky, the Gov have missed their opportunity to deliver real change and growth.
