Endorsement: “Ben is a brilliant local representative with a deep understanding of the needs of this area. He has already helped many constituents with their problems and concerns.
Ben’s politics are steadfastly positive, and his message is always about building a better future, not tearing things down. He’s extraordinarily hard-working and experienced, and has built up a wide network of support in different communities across Leith and North East Edinburgh.
Ben has a strong track record and would hit the ground running as your MSP like no other candidate on the ballot.” ~ Deidre Brock SNP, former MP for Edinburgh North and Leith … See MoreSee Less
What strong record? Provide evidence please, actual evidence.

Endorsement: “For almost a decade, I had the privilege of being the MP for the East of our city. I worked closely with Ben, seeing his drive, focus, and dedication to the people he serves – he’ll be a great MSP for communities I used to represent.
When something needs done Ben gets it done. He delivers for ordinary people and champions fairness, compassion, peace and social justice – at home and abroad.
Ben also brings passion and wisdom to the campaign for Scottish statehood. We need experienced voices like his in Holyrood now more than ever – to deliver for the people of Scotland and grow support for Independence.” ~ Tommy Sheppard, former MP for Edinburgh East … See MoreSee Less
Good luck Ben👍
Both votes SNP 🏴🏴
Best of luck Ben.❤️🏴❤️🏴

SNP for me
The next United Kingdom general election is scheduled to be held no later than Wednesday 15 August 2029. Reform UK may win the election. Nigel Farage may become Prime Minister as Labour collapses and the Tories dwindle to irrelevance. Nigel Farage couldn't care less about Scotland but he will hang on relentlessly as he attempts to dismantle the NHS and retain the wealth and independence Scotland will have by the end of this decade. Farage forced Brexit on Scotland. Keep him and REFORM OUT. Farage has also promised he will split the NHS into those who can afford it and those who cannot. First let's secure Holyrood. LET'S REMEMBER: We are ALL SCOTS. It's healthy to have our differences and still remain friends.
If you need Tommy then you are finished.
Part of the problem for 10 years then

Nope. The Swinney Effect. Useless liar.
Avoid those snp cretins. Or the pedo Greens
John Swinney Neil Gray SNP tonight am I a keyboard warrior.. no. However I am EXTREMELY disappointed, frustrated, and angry at the complete and utter contradiction of how you two procrastinate on how well you are doing with NHS Scotland. Context.. my father has been in patient at Western General for a month. Whilst the care delivery has been rudimentary and serves the purpose its been ok. Until Friday night past when in their "supposed" care he fell and completely shattered his femoral head … the ball joint off the hip. Recourse and solution.. xray/good solution/surgery… outcome?? He has been lying in his hospital bed since Friday until today to wait a transfer to Edinburgh royal for surgery. An 87 year old man in complete agony waiting 3 days .. wtf. We have been told by nursing staff it would have been better if he had fallen in the street, that way he would have been attended to immediately. Limited pain relief. Anyway he's now transferred. NHS SLA suggest this injury needs to be addressed within 48 hours. We are now 72! However, as he's only been admitted to ERI for procedure the clock only starts ticking now.. how to fudge statistics. And we have also been told the chances of surgery happening tomorrow is unlikely as its a Bank Holiday weekend. Since when did medicine stop for a holiday? An absolute disgrace.. but the final comment from the attending surgeon on admission, when asked if surgery at his agee was ok, my mother was told an assessment would be made on whether hey anticipate he's destined for another world .. or not. In summary.. shame on you.. shame
If (and only if) you’re attracted to voting for the Greens then please do so on the 🍑 regional ballot paper, and consider splitting your vote and putting your trust in me (as a progressive) and the SNP on the 🟪 constituency ballot paper.
That is a way you can maximise your votes for a number of reasons, if you’re attracted to voting for the Greens. Voting for the Greens on the first lilic, constituency ballot could have negative unintended consequences – the Greens really want your votes on the peach, regional ballot, which is how they’ve always got their MSPs elected.
However, both votes SNP is the best way to help secure an SNP majority and elect Tommy Sheppard as a regional MSP for our patch, who’d be great. … See MoreSee Less

I will never vote SNP. They are a pretend independence party who have ignored every mandate given to them since 2014. They are only interested in perpetuating devolution for personal reward. They are in effect a UK devolution party. Part of the establishment and rotten to the core with career politicians. It’s worth remembering the SNP have quietly released 150 dangerous criminal (paranoid schizophrenics with criminal records) into our communities from Mental Health Hospitals to save money. They are being treated in our communities instead of secure hospital environments where the public are safe. Instead these individuals are living in our communities all over Scotland next to our homes, schools, old folks homes and work places. On the outside where they have access to alcohol and drugs which has a detrimental effect on their treatment. It’s all to save money! I know of one individual who has been released into the Glasgow community after braking into a man’s home on the Southside of Glasgow. Where he tied the victim up and murdered him. The culprit who sufferes from paranoid schizophrenia has been released into the Glasgow community where he gets treatment at an out patient clinic. This dangerous individual is deemed unfit to stand trial but the SNP think it is safe for him to live in our community rather than in a safe mental health facility. I attended a meeting at Holyrood on the 27th November 2025 with a Government minister and professional clinicians to discuss the matter. I wanted them to reverse this dangerous policy but they do not want to. The SNP are quick to shout about what they have delivered but extremely quiet to talk about the release of mentally ill criminals into our community. It’s the tip of the iceberg. I’m voting Alliance To Liberate Scotland on both votes.
Endorsement: “Ben has done more to tackle the ’Seafield stench’ than any of his predecessors. He has achieved major new investment in the plant that will reduce odours. The construction works are happening this year to implement this funding, and it will make a meaningful difference for the local community.” ~ Rob Kirkwood, Chair of the Leith Links Residents Association … See MoreSee Less
Very well done . But , it is the only positive achievement I have heard about ! Are there any others ?
I hope everything goes well on Thursday 🙏
Luckily, although I live opposite the seafield sewage works, I lost my sense of smell when I got covid. Can he give me another reason why I should vote for him?
The SNP gave them half a million pounds worth of Scottish tax payers cash. We wonder why? 🤔
His politics stink though
Get these criminals out time for some strategic voting.
So people still vote for this lot after wasting our taxpayers cash . Lefty goons need kicked right oot
Endorsement: “I’ve had the chance to work with Ben through the relocation of Drakkars Drift to Victoria Park, and throughout the process he has been genuinely supportive, engaged, and committed to helping bring a meaningful community project to life.
What stood out to me was his willingness to listen, connect people, and help move conversations forward in a practical way. Public green spaces matter enormously to communities, and it’s encouraging to see someone who recognises their social, environmental, and long-term value.
Ben’s support has helped create something positive for the area, and I’m grateful for the role he has played in helping make the project possible.” ~ Luke … See MoreSee Less

Over the years, I’ve helped many constituents with issues concerning tenement maintenance and repair and factoring. Changes are needed. Therefore, I have worked to campaign to improve the law around these matters. I secured these commitments in the SNP manifesto and want to be part of the next parliamentary term to deliver the reforms areas like ours need.

Endorsement: “Ben is a consistent and reliable force for good in the Scottish Parliament. He has been pragmatic in his ministerial roles in order to achieve the best results for Scotland with the limited devolved powers we have. He seeks out common ground with politicians from other parties, rather than trying to score points just to get a headline. He is a visible presence in the constituency, and an excellent listener to the concerns raised by grassroot groups and individuals from all backgrounds. Leith and Scotland would be worse off without him. Return Ben to Holyrood!” ~ Sandy Campbell, Leither | Founder of a Youth Employment Charity … See MoreSee Less

Good day
Lifelong member of the snp until a couple of years ago, every election I’ve voted in was for someone to win, sickens me that this time I’ll be voting to block, block you and the greens, an absolute shame what you’ve both done to everything we spent the past couple of decades building. You lot left over have completely lost your way. Have asked you direct questions this past couple of months, appalled at the response. The current SNP are not any different from any other grifting careerists out there when you were at one point an alternative. Worse than that, you aren’t even as good at it as the other parties. I’m not alone, but so disgusted with what you’ve “achieved” with our support, I will literally vote for anyone with the highest probability in blocking you, and for all the difference it will make, I don’t care who that is. I’ll be consulting A.I on every available protocol on the day to hedge bets as best as I can. Holyrood needs a shake, and you frauds need out. Maybe one day you guys can regroup and get back to the plot. Anyone that thinks Swinney has the skill and tenacity to negotiate a referendum in the next five years is an idiot that you rely on for your tidy salary, nothing more. Here’s hoping many others have woken up. Good luck on Thursday. Watched you walk down my street and not knock on a single door btw. I’d genuinely invited you in for a coffee. 👍
Suck my big.toe
In my current Ministerial role (which I’ve been in since September) I’ve championed the importance of apprenticeships – therefore, I’m so pleased and proud that we’re committing to delivering many more of these, and addressing contribution rates, if re-elected to govern. Locally I would also keep working to see as many apprenticeships delivered in our area as possible, including in renewables at the Port of Leith. … See MoreSee Less

All you build now is student housing Because you get more money out off it Shocking
No more student flats
Fantastic MSP, a man of integrity, humility and intelligence. The constituency have a fantastic candidate in Ben.
The social housing is not affordable in times of fuel shortage. You should have looked at passivhaus builds instead of damaging the planet with cheap not fit for the modern age accommodation.
Great video! Best candidate for this area by far.
Watch you don’t break your leg on they slabs on leith walk now 🤣

Ben for Edinburgh North. You contibute so much to our communities. SNP 1 AND 2
I like his accent. He presents himself very confidently. The Leith is a nice place to live. The location has many shops, bars, cafés etc. Plenty things to do and to see. 🙂
A massive thank you for all your help . Lorne Street community residents were in a state of panic as we thought we'd be losing our homes. You most definitely stepped in helped us secure our homes.
Did you check whether Snoop dog was in the country?

Will you help us with getting the electric vehicles off the Leith Walk pavement please? Between the shocking state of the shattered paving stones and bikes that are keeping pace with buses, turning onto side streets around tight corners at full speed with no idea what/who might be around the corner. Often while looking at their phone. Elderly people, disabled people, small children…we are all part of the rich community that is LW and we are in harms way the minute we are onto LW. Motor vehicles traveling at the speed of traffic belong on the road, not the pavement. Why is this simply allowed? Nowhere else in the city, to my knowledge.
You've got my constituency vote.
Youths are running riot constantly and not a single thing done about it. You only need to look at the I Love Leith Facebook pages to see how bad it is and people genuinely frightened. Not a peep from you and the police don't seem to care, oh hang on, maybe the police would like to do something, but your ridiculous SNP rule of giving next to no punishment for anyone under 25 means they can do what they want!
I sent a email about a problem with parking I’m still waiting for a reply

Maybe Ben can get this closed Bus stop up and running outside 20 Great Juncyion St. Edinburgh Council are a dam joke. Feel free Ben to pop into the Opticians opposite the Bus Stop and I can update you.
I enjoyed our chat today,
Looks like this lavender menace will be sending a lilac yes to snp. I’ll be emailing when I get chance Ben and albeit I haven’t yet met you I would like to arrange to come and meet you at some point perhaps when you’re back in the chair. The first time I. My life I felt safe despite being lgbt and disabled and such was when I moved to Leith. I live in the non gentrified part and despite its appearances I have never felt such a sense community close to what Manchester felt like. No country is perfect but seeing how the SNP have not tolerated the BS narrative on us disabled folk being used as cash cows cutting the very welfare we rely on to eat is a sigh of relief. Prescriptions, buses, university have literally all been life changers for me and total game changers having never experienced that in England. I’ve been learning more about the SNP, Independence (already read a lot including g large chunks of the original al white paper before I lived here) and the history and political landscape here. It feels very much home and my life has been literally changed by the fact I am able to say I return to uni this year to study law and politics. A dream unimaginable before.
Trade and Fiscal deficits According to the Scottish SNP Government: Scotlands revenue 24/25 was £91.376 billion. Spending on public services for Scotland was £117.564 billion. Scotland’s fiscal deficit was therefore £26.188 billion. That is 11.8% of Scotland’s GDP. How on Earth, with these Scottish SNP Government figures, can nationalists assert that Scotland subsidises the U.K.? The economic case for independence is distinctly underwhelming. According to the Quarterly National Accounts Scotland compiled and published by the Scottish SNP Government, Scotland’s trade balance for the year 4th quarter 2023 to 3rd quarter 2024 ( latest figures) was minus £25 billion. That is 11.4% of Scotland’s GDP. An independent country would collapse financially and consequently socially if that was the state of its economy.
Good morning
Unite the YES movement It doesnae take a genius to see if they SNP win 62 constituency seats they may get 2 list seats. If they get over 64 constituency seats they will win zero list seats. Small parties dont win list seats……they are small parties because the SNP keep them there, apart from the Scottish Green Party. I totally support the SNP to control Holyrood but rather than hear unionist parties based in England getting seats in Holyrood I would like to see pro-independence MSPs holding the SNP to account. The SNP are not perfect, no party is, but the shit shows from England will ruin Scotland I'm trying to keep the unionists out of Holyrood, it won't happen if you waste 1,000,000 list votes due to party loyalty or closet devolutionists who are happy with another 5yrs. If you watched the leaders debate you would see the shit we will still have to put up with in Hollyrood Westminster under Labour, Conservative, Libdems or Reform will never allow another section 30 referendum due to Supreme Court ruling In 2007 the SNP got 633,611 list votes and 26 list seats. In 2011 the SNP got 876,421 list votes and 16 list seats. In 2016 the SNP got 953,587 list votes and 4 list seats. in 2021 the SNP got 1,094,374 list votes and only 2 list seats. In 2026 the SNP will get absolutely No list seats, even though we are on track to repeat the pattern. So, as you can see, the SNP’s list vote has risen from 633,611 in 2007 to over 1.09 million in 2021, yet our list seats have collapsed from 26 to just 2. That tells you everything about how the system works. The more dominant the SNP becomes in constituencies, the more the regional list punishes those same voters, effectively wasting hundreds of thousands of pro-independence votes and handing representation to unionist parties. So vote SNP in the constituency, that’s where the mandate is won. But on the list, vote strategically for other pro-independence parties like the Greens or Alliance to Liberate Scotland, and turn those wasted votes into seats. That’s how you move from a simple majority to a pro-independence supermajority, stop the system working against us, and make our move for independence! Cal Hilton Check out ALL the opinion polls here, or are they all wrong? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_for_the_2026_Scottish_Parliament_election 2011……Will never happen again, stop living in the past, the SNP have moved on why can't you? The SNP are now longer the protest party of old they are the dominant party in Scotland. The D'Honte system is designed to spread the vote by allowing other parties to gain seats, the more constituency seats the SNP win the less regional list seats they will win. The SNP are so dominant, and I'm glad they are, that they are predicted to get zero list seats in May, the more constituency seats they win was different from 2011 as they only won 46 constituency seats but they got 23 regional seats giving them the 69 seat majority, the SNP would have to fail miserably in May to repeat the 2011 outcome, SNP 1&2 will never benefit the SNP again, it will only benefit the Unionist parties as they now the protest parties. Unless we support other pro independence parties the unionists will gain all the regional seats, that is something we will regret if we don't move on and give your regional list vote to another protest nationalist party to minimise the unionist seats Scotland has 73 constituency seats and 56 regional list seats — 129 total. The SNP dominates constituency votes, but under d'Hondt, every constituency win divides their list votes, making each SNP list vote worth a fraction of its face value. The +N numbers below show how many additional pro-independence MSPs would be elected compared to everyone voting SNP on the list, if 85% more SNP list voters instead backed a party with no constituency penalty. Same voters, same independence support — just mathematically smarter allocation. Don’t waste your vote. The intention is to maximise the pro-Independence seats in Holyrood this election.

SCOTLAND The best performing country in the UK with the lowest unemployment. The best inward foreign investment in the UK outside London for a decade and the best educated workforce in Europe. Scottish babies start life with a baby box, £420 of essentials to give every child an equal start in life, 319,000 delivered to date. Free school meals to primary five, £26.50 Scottish child payment lifting 100,000 kids out of poverty and hailed by the Child Poverty Alliance to be the biggest game changer in child poverty for 40 years. A family with three children would receive almost £5,500 more a year in household income than their English counterpart. Peak time train fares abolished saving working people hundreds of £s per year in these cash strapped times. Free bus passes to age 22 and best of all free university education. 690,000 Scots have graduated without student debt since 2007 making Scots the best educated workforce in Europe and gaining for Scotland the best foreign investment in the UK for the fifth year in a row. Lowest unemployment in the UK at 3.3 percent. Under the SNP the Queensferry Crossing and AWPR was built, the Royal Jubilee and the ECC at the ARI was built, Edinburgh Royal Infirmary was refurbished and reopened. £35 million teaching lab at Aberdeen University, 45 heart transplants a year. This year, a centre has already opened two orthopaedic theatres, allowing approximately 4800 planned procedures, mostly hip and knee replacements, to be carried out by March 2025. Alford, Inverurie, Ellon and Longside Academies were built, 1000 schools were refurbished and upgraded. New £56.6m Hawick High School given the green light. New £150 million Tay Crossing, Destiny Bridge was opened, joining the A9 to the A93 and A94. ScotRail brought into public ownership and 500 miles of new track laid. The Borders Railway was the longest new railway built in the UK for over a hundred years. Borders Light Railway and Levenmouth were built, Laurencekirk and Kintore stations were built and Inverness Airport railway station was built. Troon station was rebuilt. Between April 1st 2023 and March 31st 2024 to help tackle climate change there were 30,000,000 million trees planted in Scotland and that was 73% of all new woodland planted in the UK in that year. Maybe you'd like to pay bridge tolls? In England motorists pay more than £360 million annually on tolls. The cost of toll roads has increased significantly since 2020, with drivers paying an additional £2,462 per year on average for their daily commute. Scotland has had 16 Nobel laureates, and has the third highest number of Nobel laureates per capita of any country, after Sweden and Switzerland. ……. Of course nothing is perfect. No government delivers perfection. But Scots can and should be proud of a country that has progressed for nearly 20 years. We ARE the SNP. We ARE the future for SCOTLAND. LET'S GET OUT AND GET THE VOTES! p.s. Ireland’s economy is thriving, with strong growth in 2025 (nearly 5% domestic growth, >12% GDP) driven by multinational corporations, a skilled workforce, and high-tech FDI, placing it among the most prosperous EU nations.

Endorsement: “I’ll be voting for Ben in this election. I am really impressed with the SNP’s commitment to year‑round childcare for every child from nine months to 12 years old. Knowing that my daughter could go to a breakfast club and stay safely in school at the end of the day would take so much pressure off. I know Ben and the SNP clearly understand what parents in Scotland need.” ~ Laura, Restalrig … See MoreSee Less
I will! 😁
Best of luck Ben.🏴❤️🏴❤️
Good luck
Local man for local people 👍
Independence is normal 🏴
I won't
Paying for someone else to look after YOUR kids.
What tablets are you on
Nope.
#thickfucksforindy #snpfreebies #snpvotebuying
Will ye aye .
It's not what parents need that's the problem in Scotland. It's what they demand that's tricky to deliver. That the State should take responsibility for paying to bring up their children and to which they intend making as little contribution as possible.
I'll be voting for SNP this year because I love being taxed higher than the English to keep the benefits keep benefiting. it's alright though, I get 'free' prescriptions 👏👏🤡

Hey Ben, I'll be voting for you, but next time, leave the Kirkgate benches alone, man!
I know this lady. I have eaten in her restaurant on the Leith Walk. Once. Shame it is closed now.
SNP ALL THE WAY BELIEVE IN A BETTER SCOTLAND 🏴
Is he a non-binary and can he define a woman? And is he friendly with terrorists?
Could have picked a better party.😂😂😂😂😂😂
Does backing independence mean handing her OBE back to the UK government? 🤷♂️ is not suitable, instead: Does supporting independence mean giving back the OBE?
He's SNP. Leopards and spots.

Good luck Ben 👍
It's interesting how our perennial pests claim the SNP has achieved little or nothing in using our taxes to provide a wide area of benefits. Perhaps the pests should refuse to accept any of these benefits to show what they themselves crawl for. SCOTLAND The best performing country in the UK with the lowest unemployment. The best inward foreign investment in the UK outside London for a decade and the best educated workforce in Europe. Scottish babies start life with a baby box, £420 of essentials to give every child an equal start in life, 319,000 delivered to date. Free school meals to primary five, £26.50 Scottish child payment lifting 100,000 kids out of poverty and hailed by the Child Poverty Alliance to be the biggest game changer in child poverty for 40 years. A family with three children would receive almost £5,500 more a year in household income than their English counterpart. Peak time train fares abolished saving working people hundreds of £s per year in these cash strapped times. Free bus passes to age 22 and best of all free university education. 690,000 Scots have graduated without student debt since 2007 making Scots the best educated workforce in Europe and gaining for Scotland the best foreign investment in the UK for the fifth year in a row. Lowest unemployment in the UK at 3.3 percent. Under the SNP the Queensferry Crossing and AWPR was built, the Royal Jubilee and the ECC at the ARI was built, Edinburgh Royal Infirmary was refurbished and reopened. £35 million teaching lab at Aberdeen University, 45 heart transplants a year. This year, a centre has already opened two orthopaedic theatres, allowing approximately 4800 planned procedures, mostly hip and knee replacements, to be carried out by March 2025. Alford, Inverurie, Ellon and Longside Academies were built, 1000 schools were refurbished and upgraded. New £56.6m Hawick High School given the green light. New £150 million Tay Crossing, Destiny Bridge was opened, joining the A9 to the A93 and A94. ScotRail brought into public ownership and 500 miles of new track laid. The Borders Railway was the longest new railway built in the UK for over a hundred years. Borders Light Railway and Levenmouth were built, Laurencekirk and Kintore stations were built and Inverness Airport railway station was built. Troon station was rebuilt. Between April 1st 2023 and March 31st 2024 to help tackle climate change there were 30,000,000 million trees planted in Scotland and that was 73% of all new woodland planted in the UK in that year. Maybe you'd like to pay bridge tolls? In England motorists pay more than £360 million annually on tolls. The cost of toll roads has increased significantly since 2020, with drivers paying an additional £2,462 per year on average for their daily commute. Scotland has had 16 Nobel laureates, and has the third highest number of Nobel laureates per capita of any country, after Sweden and Switzerland. ……. Of course nothing is perfect. No government delivers perfection. But Scots can and should be proud of a country that has progressed for nearly 20 years. We ARE the SNP. We ARE the future for SCOTLAND. LET'S GET OUT AND GET THE VOTES!
Another promise that won't see the light of day.
"Thanks Mum"
Another useless clueless SNP propaganda mouthpiece in full motion, NHS is crumbling before our eyes Police and fire services decimated SNP justice completely failing the Scottish people,NHS is crumbling before our eyes Police and fire services decimated SNP justice completely failing the Scottish people, Scottish children homeless and hungry, SNP response, schoolbags, Swinneys now the problem not the solution his weak leadership has allowed weak government after 19yrs SNP failure Scotland is broken

SCOTLAND THE PEOPLE'S COUNTRY WHERE THE PEOPLE ARE SOVEREIGN.
Am thinking that independence is probably unattainable with the SNP and Greens so might condider voting for someone and a party who will deliver on important issues such as youth crime, social housing, social care and later life provision
👎👎👎👎👎
Unpaid numpties while you try to get on the gravy train
All the best for the 7th May
Can anyone answer these questions?
18 years of failure what is it with the snp and gender and death
Well Done Folks…
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🖕
Helping the nonce party snp
I have come to the conclusion that supporting the snp is not good for your hairline.
What a joke
Even the obligatory wee scabby dug never showed up 🤣
They'res never enough to fill a campervan
How many more
Teenage girls being handed rape alarms because of concerns they are being stalked by male migrants should be a "wake up call", John Swinney has been told as it was revealed that schoolchildren in Dumfries had been handed the devices after asylum seekers in a hotel were seen leering at them. But SNP leader and First Minister John Swinney does not want to discuss the issue of immigration after previously claiming that the "rhetoric" around immigration was feeding "intolerance, prejudice, division, and hatred". He also branded Scots with concerns about immigration "racist". It comes as polling suggests immigration is a top three issue in this year's Scottish election.
This got delivered to us,, Oh the irony 😂😂😂😂
Oh yawn The unionistas are out
