[A former SNP MP could lose her seat
after being handed a 30-day ban from the Commons for travelling across Britain when she knew she was ill with Covid. Parliament's Committee on Standards has recommended the punishment for Margaret Ferrier over her incredible breach of coronavirus rules. The MP travelled in and around Glasgow and to London in September 2020 after taking a test, instead of isolating.] https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ain-Covid.html |

She now faces a recall petition which, if it attracts more than ten per cent of the
electorate, will force a by-election. This could mean a Labour re-take and the first disaster for the First Minister The very future of Keir Starmer’s leadership and future prospects will depend on Rutherglen turning red. Will the SNP now do the same in Rutherglen? It will have to wait until the Commons ratifies the recommendation of the Standards Committee, but after that happens, the party cannot risk being accused of not sharing local anger at Ferrier, especially since the SNP have made much hay with the accusations against Boris Johnson for similar breaches of Covid rules. The SNP needs to be at the forefront of efforts to encourage voters to add their name to the recall petition. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/202...-from-the-snp/ |

It will depend on how much Rutherglen and Hamilton West voters like Humza Yousaf.
However this WILL be a big test more for Labour if a by-election becomes necessary. As to what progress Labour may be or may not be making in Scotland. It's a comparatively new seat over the years which Labour has lost to the SNP twice. So both an interesting and strong test for Labour definitely north of the border. |
