With just six weeks to go before the Scottish Referendum, I joined Margaret Curran, Shadow Secretary of State for Scotland, campaigning for a “No” vote in Edinburgh West and Edinburgh Southern.  Scottish Labour are working hard right across Scotland knocking on doors, phoning and delivering leaflets.

I was delighted to attend the Opening Concert of the Edinburgh International Festival 2014, with pieces by Schoenberg, Scriabin, and Debussy performed by the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, under composer and conductor Oliver Knussen.
