A member of the Scottish Conservatives, he has been a Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for the Central Scotland region since 2021.

2005

He was the Conservative candidate in Stirling in 2005 and 2015 but was defeated by Labour and the SNP, respectively.

Kerr was the Conservative Party candidate in Stirling at both the 2005 and 2015 general elections; where he lost to Labour the first time, and the SNP the second time before he eventually gained the seat in 2017 with a narrow majority of 148 votes (0.3%) over Steven Paterson of the SNP.

He eventually gained the seat in 2017 with a narrow majority over Steven Paterson.

2018

Kerr signed a letter to the Prime Minister on 16 February 2018, making suggestions about the way Britain should leave the European Union.

Kerr founded the APPG for Professional Sales as Chairman, in June 2018.

In July 2018, Kerr unveiled replicas of the John Allan Stones at the Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum.

The stones were originally placed on Albany Crescent, a now-demolished row of houses near the Stirling City Centre.

Although the original stones were taken to the United States by David O. McKay, who had seen them while serving as a Mormon missionary, following the houses being knocked down, they remained a part of Stirling's history through their association with Stirling architect John Allan.

The motto "What e're thou art, act well thy part" inscribed on the stones inspired McKay to continue his work as a missionary, and as such became known across the Church for their inspiring qualities.

The originals can still be found in the church's Missionary Training Center in Provo, Utah.

The replica stones were carved by Doune Stonemasons James Innes and Son.

2019

However, he was defeated by Alyn Smith in 2019.

Listed number one on the Scottish Conservative Central Scotland regional list, Kerr was elected at the 2021 Scottish Parliament election.

Kerr was born in Dundee and raised on a council estate in Forfar, Angus.

He attended a local primary school and later, Forfar Academy, before leaving at 16 to work as a bank junior.

He graduated from the University of Stirling with an honours degree in business.

His role immediately prior to his election involved heading the sales teams for Kimberly Clark in the UK, Ireland and France.

He was elected alongside Graham Simpson and Meghan Gallacher.

He took his seat on 10 May 2021.

On 12 January 2022, Kerr called for Boris Johnson to resign as Conservative party leader and Prime Minister over the Westminster lockdown parties controversy along with a majority of Scottish Conservative MSPs.

In a mini-reshuffle in September 2022, Kerr was moved to be the Shadow Secretary for Education and Skills, shadowing Shirley-Anne Somerville.

He was replaced as Scottish Conservative Chief Whip by Alexander Burnett.

In January 2023, Kerr wrote an article for the Daily Telegraph calling on reforms of the Scottish Parliament to offer greater scrutiny of the Scottish Government, arguing that Holyrood proceedings were "rigorously controlled" by Scottish Ministers and accused SNP backbenchers of "scripted questions".

Kerr's article sparked debate across Scotland, with Kerr's arguments being supported by former SNP Government ministers.

Kerr caused controversy on 14 April 2023 in a now deleted tweet when he suggested transgender people have learning disabilities and has since apologised.
