With over 30 years service in our NHS, one thing I'm not is a "career politician".

When my team have knocked on voters' doors, one common theme is that people don't like "career politicians" who've never worked in the "real world".
Working in the NHS, I've seen first hand how our public services are struggling under 19 years of SNP mismanagement.
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
There it is.
Farage and Reform would end our NHS.
Millions of people could not afford to be ill under a Reform government.
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
“Scanxiety" is the reality for too many Scots waiting in limbo for vital health tests and results.
In today’s @Sunday_Mail, my column reflects on the human cost of broken SNP promises. @AnasSarwar is the only candidate for First Minister who will put the NHS first.
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
It’s time for a new direction for Scotland with @AnasSarwar & @ScottishLabour.
As someone who's worked for our NHS for over 30 years, it's shocking what 19 years of SNP mismanagement has done to our health service. #scottishlabour #aberdeendonside #holyrood #holyrood2026

“These cuts are bad for journalism and they are bad for the north and north-east of Scotland.”
Nick McGowan-Lowe, NUJ national organiser for Scotland, spoke with BBC Reporting Scotland earlier to explain the reasons for today’s #STVStrike.
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
Four months to change Scotland’s future.
This is what we’re campaigning for 📹🏴
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
1 million Scots reached a week. 🤳
1 million doorstep conversations to come. 🗣️
1 million election fund. 💷
The choice this May is between a third decade of the tired SNP or a new direction with Scottish Labour.
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
.@AnasSarwar, Scottish Labour leader, said:
"It is vital that we protect Scottish journalism, which serves communities across the country.
"I'm proud to stand with journalists at STV as they take strike action over the wrongheaded decision to cut staff and programming for the north of Scotland."
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
Despite heavy snow and cold weather, STV members also formed a picket line outside the STV North HQ in Aberdeen, where significant programming cuts are looming. #STVStrike
Stood on the picket line this morning with @JLLabour26 in solidarity with @STVNews staff trying to save STV North News. Want to have your say? See link to @ofcom consultation 👇

And the recent extreme winter weather is a prime example why local news matters in our area. STV North gives local issues the time they so richly deserve! #SaveSTVNorth
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
This year Scots face a choice:
The SNP’s record of failure on the NHS.
Or a plan to fix it with Scottish Labour.
Councillor Lynn Thomson retweeted
After 20 years, the SNP has had their chance and they blew it.
It’s time for a First Minister that offers competence, hope, and a better future for our young people.
