Sue Webber MSP

Sue is an MSP for the Lothian Region and was elected in May 2021.  She lives in the south west of Edinburgh.

Sue is the Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Transport. Previously Sue was the Convenor of the Education, Children and Young Peoples committee at the Scottish Parliament and was also the Shadow Minister for Drugs Policy and Mental Wellbeing

Prior to being an MSP, Sue ran her own business providing services and medical supplies to our NHS so saw first-hand how poorly the SNP manages the priorities of the health service in Scotland.

Sue first entered politics during the referendum in 2014 when she was part of the Better Together campaign. Seeing that the SNP would not let go of their separatist agenda, Sue decided to run for office herself, to represent her local area which has been poorly served by the SNP both at Council and Holyrood.

Sue was a councillor for the Pentland Hills Ward from 2017 to 2022 and was a powerful voice for local residents. She was known as a councillor that got things done. During this time Sue was the Conservative Council Group's Transport Spokesperson.
