Following the death of MSP Margaret Ewing yesterday, Jo gave the following statement:

"I was saddened to hear of the death of Margaret Ewing. Margaret was widely respected as a politician with a steadfast commitment to Scotland, who was very popular among her constituents and who had friends across the political spectrum. Like myself, she was first elected in East Dunbartonshire as a young woman, so I am proud to follow in her footsteps and hope I can also go on to emulate her distinguished career in Parliament."
