Kirsty McNeill

Labour (Co-op) — Midlothian

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 June 2025

Debate

Local Authority Funding: Barnett Formula

Contribution

I could not agree more. In England, waiting lists have fallen since Labour came to office less than a year ago, while in Scotland they continue to rise, and we now see nearly one in six Scots waiting for treatment. John Swinney has, in total desperation, announced that the SNP Government’s fifth NHS recovery plan in less than four years, but the reality is that patients, staff and we all know that Scotland desperately needs a new direction.
