Can't troll, punch or steal in your Party?
Get away with all that, & lots more! Join a party that doesn't believe in disciplining members!
Serial criminal thug (from guilty of assaulting several MPs in a Commons bar to guilty of beating up kids in a shop to a conviction for a "prolonged, drink-fuelled rant" breach of the peace at Edinburgh Airport, to a conviction for drink-driving, to another arrest for bar fighting, [ok, enough - we get the point]) and former Labour MP finally (who fell for/over/on top of a relationship with a 17 year old girl) is now backing the SNP.
With friends like these...
So much has this one time (sorry, many time) thug, now turned ‘political commentator’ gone over to the separatist cause - that he is even a guest scrawler for the apoplectic-bile wing of the Scottish Nasty Party - ‘Wings over Scotland’.
He is therefore bound to feel perfectly at home among the book-burning councillors, the teenage-three-in-a-bed-romp MPs, serial expenses scandals, feathering of phony philanthropy fronts with public funds, the repeat pantomime fake-apologizing, the tolerance of physical threats and violence, the sleaze, the misogyny, the mendacity and the solipsistic adulterous public preening of the SNP.
Just goes to show, when you are slung out of public life for repeat, unacceptable, criminal and violent behaviour - these is a place you can go. You can always bide wi the SNatsis!
