Oil and Gas Lobby tells Farage his anti green energy drive is a mistake. Love it.

From litter picking in Hurlford, visiting the Kinship Carers fundraising coffee morning at Centrestage, to visiting the Farmers Market at Kilmarnock Cross, it has been a great springtime sunny Saturday across the communities of Kilmarnock East & Hurlford.

Those who sow chaos and disinformation to disrupt others should remember: the forces they unleash have no loyalty, and one day, will turn on them.
That day was today.

Rest in peace my dear friend & colleague Councillor Maureen McKay, a passionate defender of the communities she was so proud to represent in Kilmarnock North. Maureenβs sense of style, her determination, intellect & kindness made her one of the most formidable politicians Iβve ever known.

Great to spend time with some of the committee of Hurlford Bowling Club in my ward, we talked about the great facilities they have and funding for improvements & energy costs. Thanks to Jan, Jacqueline, Ian, Sheila & Jim for showing me around today and thanks for the cuppa and cake too!
