Linesmen are paid by appearance, Tory scum are paid no matter what. He's doing for the cash and screw the country, the Tory mantra.
Haha, no worries on that mate. I’m not a native by the way, and the area overall has a sizeable English population who are partly to blame for the Tory vote , from two historical RAF bases, a load of Tory farmers , that’s Ross’s backround and I guess Tory fishermen. It has been solidly SNP for many years, but curiously our area was the closest Brexit vote in Scotland only just Remain 51/ 49ish , mainly fishing areas wanting out.It's entirely down to the party if they really wanted him there for the vote and they'll likely not be throwing a three line whip around given the likelihood of a rebellion.
And if his constituents are disappointed then I'm glad - the utter tories.... @blueloon excepted....I hope
