| Ms Margo Macdonald has announced
her intention to split from Ms Margo Macdonald. The dramatic news came just hours after
the MSP had told a news conference of her intention to fight the next election as an
independent. Ms Macdonald, one of the leading lights in the 70s
revival of SNP electoral fortunes, had expressed concern over the last few months with the
spin doctor tendency she claimed had taken over her erstwhile political home.
Ms MacDonald spoke of the good old days in the SNP: "I remember when the
party wasnt subject to control freakery, when buxom blonde women with voices like
Foghorn Leghorn would be listened to and given a free run at whatever they liked.
Its a sad day when the party becomes more important than an uniquely gifted
individual - like me for example." |
The decision to split from herself
appears to have been taken directly after the press conference when the woman the media
called the Blonde Blunderbuss was seen arguing with herself in the Assembly Rooms
corridor. A heated conversation, featuring Ms Macdonald's usual
hippo-with-cystitis baritone bellow and an alternate Margo, with a voice reminiscent
of Neddy Seagoon, only ended when the MSP landed a uppercut on her own chin and fell
unconscious.
A more composed Ms Macdonald, speaking some hours later, told the press that all
outstanding issues had been resolved and she urged voters to get behind her campaign and
to ignore that other hoor-blond bitch who kept interrupting her.
