He has spent the summer fighting a by-election against a bin, rather than answering questions about an undisclosed £5 million donation. Britain deserves serious politics, not stunts.14 Aug 2026 12:16 +0000at://did:plc:xe6jcd7nmayvueraad52inia/app.bsky.feed.post/3mt257bcsba2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/mpsusanmurray.bsky.social/post/3msb5cdker42qCongratulations to everyone in Mid Dunbartonshire who got their exam results today.

I disagree with Reform on almost everything - but they won 14% of the vote and just 5 seats, while Labour formed a majority of 412 on 33.7% of the vote. That leaves millions of votes meaning nothing, and a politics that lurches from one direction to another.25 Jun 2026 10:11 +0000at://did:plc:xe6jcd7nmayvueraad52inia/app.bsky.feed.post/3mp46vfuch727https://bsky.app/profile/mpsusanmurray.bsky.social/post/3mp27dgj5ti27The SNP and Labour are risking our security by buying products from questionable foreign companies.24 Jun 2026 15:13 +0000at://did:plc:xe6jcd7nmayvueraad52inia/app.bsky.feed.post/3mp27dgj5ti27https://bsky.app/profile/mpsusanmurray.bsky.social/post/3mokyquxt6j2dThe SNP and Greens do not need to read the report on Scotland’s nuclear potential.
