A pleasure to welcome Nathalie Roy of assnatqc and her delegation to @scotparl. An opportunity to discuss areas of common interest between Scotland and Quebec, to learn from each other and to continue to grow the valued relationship between our institutions.

Pleased to represent @scotparl at the Thistle Service at St Giles’ cathedral in the presence of Their Majesties. Appointment to the Order marks the huge contribution to Scottish public life of Lady Black of Stome, Baroness Helena Kennedy KC and Sir Geoff Palmer.

A pleasure to join islanders and guests from across the UK and Europe to celebrate #TynwaldDay, the National Day of the Isle of Man. Once a year the Island’s legislature meets for a traditional outdoor ceremony at St John’s, rather than its usual meeting place in Douglas.

Democracies across the globe are built on peaceful discourse and I am shocked at the attack on President Trump. Such acts have no place in democratic society and the thoughts of all @scotparl are with those affected.

We've had a great day in Shetland celebrating #ScotParl25 with VA Shetland and the Shetland Community Bike project. Ariane Burgess, Edward Mountain, Emma Roddick MSP, Beatrice Wishart MSP and I heard from local people about what matters to them and how we can best work with them.
