  2. 2/3 I defend to my dying breath the right of journalists to interrogate politicians, especially on a day like today. And, as someone with short arms, I understand the imperative of thrusting your dictaphone close to the source...

  3. 1/3 I know that this is a photograph of people doing their jobs, but I also find it very hard to look at. I wasn't in Holyrood today, so I don't know if the women political reporters who work there were standing out of shot, or were elsewhere like me...

    Deeply honoured to be taking up role of Gen Sec. Thanks to all my sisters and brothers who supported me to step forward. I will work tirelessly with trade unionists across Scotland to build our visibility, relevance and collective power.
