This will be the start of it in Britain. Younger politicians coming through who've lived their teenage years on facebook. All the pish they posted from when they were 14 will be published in the papers to try and shame them.

Wait a minute, she's a bursd, who works in politics and is from Scotland.

Salary = £22,000 per annum.

Most pleasing to see the tired old Labour failures being swept out with the trash.

Also most pleasing that slim Jim hasn't fell on his sword, he's a absolute tadger and political train wreck.

She couldn't look any more glaswegian if she tried.

Assuming she's a lesbian?

She does look very west coast.

I don't want to slate her achievement, but anyone in a yellow rosette would have been elected there last night. That she only got into the party 1 year ago during the referendum, shows that essentially the SNP doesn't stand for anything.

It's hard to tell with the Glaswegians, there's a fine line between roughness and masculinity.

My thoughts as well. There's no chance anyone in that constituency was compelled to vote for Mhairi Black because of her political prowess. Literally just crossed the SNP box without giving it a second glance.

I thought she was just rough as fuck at first, but she's an MP so I figure she's a lesbian. Nothing wrong with that, just an observation.

Getting hammered into wkds at 15 is probably pretty tame for where she's from.

Incredible that she's an MP though, there's hope for us yet

Tbf it's like every other 15 year old who's been allowed alcohol for the first time. Their ma and dad have allowed them to have 1 or 2 drinks at new year then they're straight onto twitter/facebook to tell everyone how they're steaming

We used to do that for Labour, not so much now.

I'd hate to think of all the vile stuff they could dig up on me if I ran  The file on things I've wished upon Acey alone would fill a Sunday edition. Â 

My social media posts right up until the age of about 22 would make me look like a horrible, horrible bigot.

Ouch. I was speaking about this today. The Lib Dems managed to shield the public from the toxicity of the tories, who will now have unfettered power to do what the fuck they want.

If that list is genuine then that's a big worry. Don't think there's a single item on that list that I like the sound of.

Ditching the human rights act

Given this list - it's a bit shan that they got so badly shafted in the vote. Just shows that their PR machine is shite.

All they seemed to do wrong was introduce tuition fees

Salmond promised to wipe out student debt and introduce a grant system in 2007. Unbelievably he did a u-turn on it once elected (after conning students to vote for him - guess who he blamed...) but it is never brought up. Cult-like behavior imo

It's not as sinister as it sounds. He would replace it with a British Bill of Rights.

Basically he wants to do it so we are allowed to deport all those shitey terrorists to their home countries - even if their home country is a bit brutal.

I am happy enough with that. I would rather their own governments dealt with them rather than have the British tax payer foot the bill.
