| SNP delegates to the Inverness
conference elected as leader the man who always used to sit beside Alex Salmond at SNP
press conferences. After the result, one
delegate explained: "I'm sure that whoever that baldy bloke with the glasses is,
he'll deliver independence. Probably."
The vote split two thirds in favour of the slaphead, the
remainder going to the other one. Whoever he is.
Elsewhere at the conference, as news of he election result
became known, supporters of
the other one expressed disappointment at the outcome. |
In a tense moment, an enraged Margo
McDonald took to the roof of the Eden Court Theatre Complex. For over an hour, she roared
her defiance at the King's Guard
below, while swinging nimbly from bell ropes and leaping from gargoyle to gargoyle.
Elected as deputy leader, Roseanna Cunningham promised to work tirelessly to promote SNP
policy and get something done about her hair.Tragedy
struck when Education spokesfish Nicola Sturgeon, her profile overshadowed by the day's
developments, was cruelly deprived of the oxygen of publicity for several minutes. Falling
to the floor, she gasped for air and flopped about until someone took pity and clubbed her
over the head. |
