John Lamont MP: Scotland and England must work together to deal with bluetongue (opens the original)
Read excerpt
BLUETONGUE is a serious concern for farmers across the Borders, Scotland and all of the UK. According to experts, the outbreak is the most severe since BTV-3 was first identified in the UK in 2023. The British Veterinary Association (BVA) has said that Bluetongue poses no risk to human health or food safety, but can cause severe disease and death in sheep, as well as milk production losses, fertility problems and congenital abnormalities in cattle. The disease is spread by midges, so it cannot b
John Lamont MP column: Centralisation will not make NHS more efficient (opens the original)
Read excerpt
IT IS DEEPLY concerning that the SNP government plans to abolish NHS Borders as part of a radical reorganisation of Scotland’s NHS For many years I have campaigned for patients to receive easier access to healthcare and faster treatment times, but it seems highly unlikely that this extreme move will make things better.

However, if the results were not as you expected or hoped for, do not despair because there is no one path to success. Th
John Lamont MP: Addressing healthcare and affordability concerns (opens the original)
Read excerpt
OVER the past few weeks, I have travelled all over the Borders as part of my annual summer advice surgery tour, speaking to people in dozens of towns and villages. Thank you to everyone who took the time to come along and speak with me. I believe it's important that politicians are accessible and accountable to the people we represent and I'm sure you feel the same way too. These tours are also one of the most enjoyable and valuable parts of my job as your local member of parliament. They give m
