JFC. The tories...

Spite? Just fucking hates Ian Murray? Clearly had enough of the SNP, but why slide into bed with the party about to be wiped out and also tar your name forever?

And that's before you get onto the WM group and their behaviour. Or what hay Labour will make of this

In a statement she said “The petty bickering in the SNP has become intolerable. I have made every effort to improve the situation but they still can’t manage anything more than moderate back biting. In joining the Tories, I have found a home where my bigotry can flourish among like minded treacherous sacks of shit”.

Anti-abortion, anti-GRR, anti-independence. The SNP is well shot of her.

Yes. But the headlines are atrocious

She was getting deselected for a reason. Selection processes need to have far more rigour
