Aim
2026 is our chance for change! We can win in Edinburgh North Eastern and Leith, but I need your help
My Name is Oliver Thomas, and I am proud to be your Scottish Labour Candidate for Edinburgh North Eastern and Leith. The campaign is well under way, and we are getting a great response on the doorstep. We can win here, and after nearly two decades of SNP failure we can send a clear message that enough is enough.
But to win, we need to get our message to as many people as we can. Every donation you can make helps me do that. I am so incredibly grateful to everyone who has done so much to support my campaign already, but we cannot risk losing to parties with deeper pockets.
Every penny makes such a difference. We are out knocking on doors and talking to voters, but with your support we can get leaflets through every door and adverts on every social media feed.
Thank you, I could not do this without you all.
Why am I Standing?
I have been an NHS doctor for over a decade, supporting people through the toughest moments of their lives. But every day I see the same truth: ill health starts long before hospital, and no medicine can fix damp homes, insecure work or poverty.
That’s why I’m standing to be an MSP. Because I don’t just want to patch people up, I want to change the system that let them down in the first place.
In 2026, the opportunity is clear. With Labour government at Westminster and a Labour government within reach at Holyrood, we can build a Scotland that works for everyone.
I’m not a career politician. I’m stepping forward now because I’ve had enough of seeing the same problems harm the same people, year after year. With your support, I will be a champion for our NHS, our community, and for real change for all of us.
Rules
Edinburgh North Eastern and Leith CLP may contact you using the information you supply in order to discharge their legal responsibilities to ensure donations are from permissible sources. Donations to meet the costs of candidate election expenses are regulated by the Representation of the People Act 1983 and the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000. By making a donation to this campaign I understand and accept the following:

- If I donate more than £500, checks will be made to ensure my name is listed on the UK electoral register (excluding the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man). Any single donations of £500 or under are not regulated donations under electoral law, and therefore the donor would not be required to be on the UK Electoral Register.
- If I donate more than £2,230 to a Constituency Labour Party or more than £11,180 to the national Labour Party in a calendar year, my name and the amount of the donation will be published on the Electoral Commission’s website, although my home address will not be made public.
- If I am making a donation of more than £50 during the short campaign (the period after the election has been called), checks will be made to ensure my name is included on the UK electoral register (excluding the Isle of Man and Channel Islands which are not permissible sources). My name and the amount I have donated will be included in the candidate return submitted after the election.
