Multimedia Political Journalist
I'm a political journalist for The National. As well as reporting on key political news, I have particular interests in public health, mental health, sport (especially Scottish rugby!) and the growth of republicanism across the UK. I have been a journalist for nearly nine years, most of which have been in Scotland after I moved here from my hometown of Sandbach in Cheshire in 2017. The following year, I was nominated for Young Journalist of the Year at the Scottish Press Awards. After working in local news for six years, The National was my first step into national news and I couldn't imagine working for another title. The values of the paper sing with mine and its ethos of being innovative and ambitious allows the team to have the freedom to explore topics they have a keen interest in, as well as the pressing issues of the day. I am a proud English Scot for Yes and always will be. Let's get it done.

THE Scottish independence referendum campaign produced more than a few memorable moments in the media, with front pages and tense encounters on air sticking in the mind.
A LEADING Yes campaigner has said he remains “optimistic” Scotland will still become independent because of the “disaster” Labour Government that is leading the UK.
It was an interesting week for David Lammy as he prompted a prominent BBC presenter to claim he had changed in the last few months since becoming part of the Government.
