| "The people of Paisley and Renfrewshire North deserve better than the last 14 years of decline, falling living standards and depleted public services crying out for innovation, better governance, reform and investment. Our High Streets and Town Centres need re-imagined, our public transportation networks need modernised and expanded; and our schools, universities, colleges, nurseries, nursing homes and hospitals all need immediate investment and more staff. Having gone to University in Paisley, I want to repay the communities that have made me who I am. I firmly believe my near 30 year experience as a chartered surveyor in the business communities of Glasgow and Renfrewshire has left me well placed to work together with a Labour team at all levels of Government and deliver for my constituents. I promise to help deliver some really quick "wins". to this area to kick start a new era of regeneration, green jobs and economic growth for Paisley, Renfrewshire and Glasgow. I want to be part of the Labour Government come the next General Election so that I can help deliver a new dawn in sustainable public investment, creating economic growth in this area, new housing, new facilities for all families, addressing the deficit in social care. I want you have an MP that is part of the Government, not waving a flag from the sidelines. I want you most of all to have an MP that cares passionately about what happens to everyone in this constituency and an MP who promises to serve the best she can"
