Historically, Lanarkshire was the most populous county in Scotland and, in earlier times, had considerably greater boundaries, including neighbouring Renfrewshire until 1402. In modern times, it is bounded to the north by Stirlingshire and a detached portion of Dunbartonshire, to the northeast by Stirlingshire, West Lothian, to the east by Peeblesshire, to the southeast and south by Dumfriesshire, to the southwest by Dumfriesshire and Ayrshire and to the west by Ayrshire, Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire.

Labour mayor rejoices as former Scottish Tory leader describes exit poll as 'massacre'
Ruth Davidson, the former Scottish Tory leader, has described the exit poll as projecting a 'massacre' for her party. But it was not as bad as it might have been, she told Sky News.

She said: 'So actually, 131 – while there is no dressing it up, this is a massacre – they’ve actually, if this is right, pulled a few back from where they thought they were.' The Labour party was predicted to win by a 'landslide' in the 10pm exit poll, regaining dozens of seats lost in the 2019 elections

Keir Starmer confident Labour would replace disgraced MP Margaret Ferrier in Rutherglen by-election
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer speaks during a visit to Rutherglen, South Lanarkshire, after meeting with business owners and voters.
His visit comes as MP for the area, Margaret Ferrier, lost her appeal against the sanction for her 2020 Covid rule breach, which could now result in a hotly-contested by-election in her Rutherglen & Hamilton West constituency.
Scottish Labour MSP Monica Lennon says it is “simply not credible” for Ferrier, who was previously a member of the SNP, to remain in her post and is demanding that she step down rather than wait for the six-week recall petition process to be triggered.

MPs debate a petition about identifying pets after traffic accidents. The debate will be opened by Martyn Day MP, a member of the Petitions Committee.

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/229004
Why is this petition being debated?
The Petitions Committee has the power to schedule debates on e-petitions in the House of Commons Second Chamber, Westminster Hall.
In deciding which petitions should be debated, it takes into account how many people have signed the petition, the topicality of the issue raised, whether the issue has recently been debated in Parliament, and the breadth of interest among MPs.
What will the petition debate achieve?
Debates on petitions in Westminster Hall are general debates about the issues raised by the petition.
MPs can discuss the petition and, if they wish, ask questions about the Government’s position on the issue or press the Government to take action.
A Government Minister takes part in the debate and answers the points raised.
These debates help to raise the profile of a campaign and could influence decision-making in Government and Parliament.
Petition debates in Westminster Hall cannot directly change the law or result in a vote to implement the request of the petition.
Creating new laws, or changing existing ones, can only be done through the parliamentary legislative process which involves a number of debates, and detailed consideration of the law in draft, in both the House of Commons and the House of Lords.
This process is normally started by the Government, although there are some ways in which individual MPs or members of the House of Lords who are not in the Government (known as "backbenchers") can ask Parliament to consider new laws.

Why is this petition being debated?
The Petitions Committee has the power to schedule debates on e-petitions in the House of Commons Second Chamber, Westminster Hall.
In deciding which petitions should be debated, it takes into account how many people have signed the petition, the topicality of the issue raised, whether the issue has recently been debated in Parliament, and the breadth of interest among MPs.
What will the petition debate achieve?
Debates on petitions in Westminster Hall are general debates about the issues raised by the petition.
MPs can discuss the petition and, if they wish, ask questions about the Government’s position on the issue or press the Government to take action.
A Government Minister takes part in the debate and answers the points raised.
These debates help to raise the profile of a campaign and could influence decision-making in Government and Parliament.
Petition debates in Westminster Hall cannot directly change the law or result in a vote to implement the request of the petition.
Creating new laws, or changing existing ones, can only be done through the parliamentary legislative process which involves a number of debates, and detailed consideration of the law in draft, in both the House of Commons and the House of Lords.
This process is normally started by the Government, although there are some ways in which individual MPs or members of the House of Lords who are not in the Government (known as "backbenchers") can ask Parliament to consider new laws.
