I have come across the said MSP a few times through the day job, and a very pleasant fellow, with a great affection for the Highlands.

But he must have been off school sick the day they did Maths. Mind you as an ex BBC journo it has obviously never held him back.

I always assumed Matalan was a clothes shop for people who don’t like clothes. As a non-shopper I admit to my ignorance.

What happened to the mouth/money interface opportunity banner on this one?

If Scottish Labour was a normal democratic organisation, Ken would be where Lamont is now. He won the membership election easily. But the trade unions said otherwise.
It would have been the first time ever Labour got a new leader at Holyrood who was an improvement on his predecessor.

Does this mean Ken has accepted we will become independent then?

Hope you read this Rev

One of your old favourites has surfaced on Guardian.

Brian Wilson, MP for hire. Looks like another click baiting exercise. Lots of badly researched claims and anti snp rhetoric, same old,same old.
