First surgery details announced
New MSP Ben McPherson was sworn in as the new member for Edinburgh Northern & Leith MSP yesterday, one of five new Edinburgh constituency MSPs voted in last week.
The new MSP, who took the seat vacated by Labour’s Malcolm Chisholm with an impressive majority of 6746, said: “It was a privilege to be sworn in to serve and represent Edinburgh Northern and Leith in the Scottish Parliament. My primary loyalty is to the people of Edinburgh Northern and Leith, Scotland and the common good.
“I’m now looking forward to working hard for the community, starting with my first local surgeries this week. I’m also working to set up a local constituency office as quickly as possible.”
