Margaret Ferrier the SNP MP who breached the Covid Regs and traveled home on a train after testing positive has been suspended for 30 days which means her constituents can petition to have a by election.
The vote was 185 in favour of the suspension while 40 MP’s voted against suspending her which would have meant she was free to carry on as an MP. Of the 40 MPs who voted against Ferrier's suspension 32 were Conservatives, two were DUP, two were Alba and one was Reclaim. Interestingly, the Conservatives who backed her included former ministers David Davis and Jacob Rees-Mogg, and party grandees Sir Bill Cash and Sir Edward Leigh and there is speculation they voted against the suspension in an attempt to set the ground to save Boris from a similar suspension if found guilty. I think it’s pretty shocking, she’s broken the law and should be out and I’d expect MP’s to have supported that.

Hardly a punishment at all compared to others. She should be in jail. | |

Don't be surprised, the rats try to close ranks and protect each other.
You can never trust politicians to do the right thing, not when there is so much money and privilige at stake. They have no morals or ethics that a decent person would recognise, with few exceptions. | | | |

There are MP’s who have committed much worse offences and are still sitting as MP’s. |  |

If there is a recall motion and another by election which the SNP were to lose then they would have no overall majority. (Even including the two Greens). | | | |

Out of curiosity who do you think came off worse for similar offences.
Not defending her btw. | | | |

Actually there's a few who only got fines for breaking covid rules, like Bojo who should have been punished worse than her.
I think the real case is, she got what she deserved and others got off lightly. | | | |

That’s what I think Cat.
I’m curious that Felix thinks differently. I may well have missed something. | | | |

Felix is a tory. Him and Builthy are polar opposites.
I have, in the past been called a loony lefty and Tory scum!
I'm neither. I hate them both  | | | |

The penalty for breaking covid rules were more often than not a small fixed penalty notice. Talk of prison or people being punished worse isn’t really a possibility unless the breaking of the rules were of a huge severity which these instances clearly are not.
To still be chasing people up years later for what are essentially minor misdemeanours seems an odd waste of time and money. | |

She was Covid positive, knew she was Covid positive and proceeded to use public transport to return to Scotland when she could have self isolated at her place in London. I think that’s pretty poor show from her tbh. | | | |

That lovable scally , Bojo , party organiser and liar will squirm his way out of any questions or inquiries regarding his behaviour as usual , add Dominic Cummins and his poor eyesight into the mix and you end up with Politicians .
As mentioned earlier , a stupid thing she has done and should have never travelled after testing positive .
Did the same advice apply to the higher levels of Government at that time too . | | | |

Nah, Kilkenny doesn't defend the left no matter what but felix defends the right and Builthy defends the left.... | | | |
