Too many young people are being left behind by the pandemic's disruption to their education.

Liberal Democrats are determined to make Scottish education the best again. That is why I have relentlessly talked about it from day one of the campaign.

Our Education Bounce Back plan commits to a transformational investment in teachers and young people. We will:

The climate emergency cannot wait. Unless there is urgent action to tackle out of control transport emissions, our environment and the health of future generations will suffer.

As trustees of our world, Liberal Democrats understand we have a duty to pass on a sustainable legacy for future generations.

For too long, vulnerable people have been subjected to harrowing long waits for mental health treatment.

The party's zero carbon homes strategy would help deliver ambitious targets to reduce emissions and would also create incentives for all households to improve their energy efficiency, with an initial five-year programme that will improve 80,000 homes per year.

Scottish Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie has set out ambitious plans to save Scotland's nature for future generations with a new Nature Recovery Law.

The party say urgent action is needed to write into law a requirement for governments to tackle the crisis facing Scotland's natural environment.

I want to send my best wishes to Muslims in the UK and across the world as we welcome the Holy Month of Ramadan.

Ramadan is a time of reflection, renewal and generosity. These are much needed in our communities, our politics and all our lives.
