Timeline

1970

Andrew Wilson (born 1970 in Lanark, Scotland) is an economist, businessman and former Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP).

He is a founding partner at strategic communications firm Charlotte Street Partners.

1992

Whilst attending the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, (from where he graduated in 1992 with a degree in economics and politics) Wilson was elected Vice President of the Students Association and became National Convener of the Scottish National Party (SNP) student organisation, the Federation of Student Nationalists.

1996

He joined the Government Economic Service after graduation, serving with the Forestry Commission and Scottish Office, and in 1996 he started work at SNP Headquarters, Edinburgh, as a researcher to the Director of Business for Scotland, before entering employment with the Royal Bank of Scotland as a business economist in 1997.

Wilson was elected to the first session of the newly re-established Scottish Parliament, as one of five SNP MSPs to represent Central Scotland through the Additional Members System.

Whilst an MSP he served variously in the Shadow Cabinet as the SNP Finance, Economy, Lifelong Learning and Transport Spokesperson.

He was widely viewed by commentators as a rising star of the SNP, an iconoclast and pro-market economist he made much headway selling the idea of fiscal autonomy now called 'Devo-Max' to the mainstream business, media and society.

It was adopted by The Scotsman, a unionist newspaper and later went on to win support across the political spectrum.

1999

He gave a controversial lecture at the party conference in 1999 promoting the idea Britishness could, should, and would survive independence.

2002

He later wrote a column for the Sunday Mail calling on Scots to support the English football team in the 2002 world cup finals.

In policy he is credited with much of the work on the SNP's alternative to the private finance initiative, now The Scottish Futures Trust.

He also promoted the case for a Scottish Sovereign wealth fund using the proceeds of North Sea Oil.

2003

In 2003 he came within 520 votes of unseating Cathie Craigie in the first past the post contest for the Cumbernauld and Kilsyth seat, but when only three SNP MSPs were returned from Central Scotland he lost his place as an MSP.

2010

2013

He delivered the Donaldson Lecture at the 2013 SNP conference.

2014

He was a Trustee of the John Smith Memorial Trust and is a Trustee of The John Smith Centre for Public Service at the University of Glasgow.
