Stirling Labour representatives have attended Remembrance Day events across the Stirling Council area today to honour all those who have served and all those who continue to serve in our armed forces.

Chris Kane MP, Cllr Gerry McGarvey, Cllr Danny Gibson, Cllr Jen Preston & Cllr David Wilson.

Today, we pause to remember.
Across Stirling & Strathallan and the UK, we honour the courage and sacrifice of those who served and continue to serve in our armed forces. Their legacy lives on in our freedoms, our communities, and our shared commitment to peace.
Lest we forget.

Chris Kane: "Further Education must be prioritised" - Chris Kane MP | Stirling and Strathallan In Chris's monthly Stirling Observer column, he calls for further education to be prioritised, as Forth Valley College announces its plans to shut its Alloa Campus.

Further education must be a priority as it is failing under the SNP Government.

Our colleges are vital economic infrastructure, just as essential as roads, rail, or energy. They deserve a fair, multi-year funding settlement.

Earlier this month it was announced that the Lord Provost for Stirling selected The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Museum as the Charity of the Year.
