Newly elected Scottish Conservative leader Russell Findlay recently toured the Borders alongside John Lamont MP and myself.
We campaigned against Labour's Family Farm Tax at Laretburn farm, visited Scotland's Rural College, and the Jim Clark motorsport museum.
Since being elected as leader just a month ago, Russell has been listening to what communities like ours care about the most and putting forward new ideas to improve our economy and public services.
While the SNP and Labour waste time on fringe obsessions, Russell is focused on what matters to people's everyday lives.
The Scottish Conservatives are the only party standing up for the Borders and rural communities across the country.
