It’s good to be back on this website. Apologies for the prolonged absence. Candidacy selections for the Scottish Parliament have dominated much of the last few months, the rules of which have constrained what I am allowed to say where.

The good news is that I will be candidate again, this time on the regional list for Glasgow – but not particularly high up. I assure my fellow candidates that, although I have seen Kind Hearts and Coronets, I am perfectly safe to be around.
