    if she was a Tory why would she just not join the Conservative Party?
    Because then she couldn’t spend her life working towards being an agent provocateur of the highest order.

    Seriously you clearly have no idea how a long game works and just how well versed the Tories are in the game of sleeper agents (hard lessons from the Cold War). It’s obvious to all (well at least one person) that Jo is just a particularly well played pawn in the big bad Tories game of political espionage...

    There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars

    Aye, very good. Remain ignorant all you want. Her voting record speaks for itself. If she actually had a soul, she never would have followed the tory whip, just to keep her own personal career intact.

    If you think another careerist politician who will always put the interests of her career above and beyond everything else, including the livelihoods of the people she's suppost to represent is the answer against the tories, then you bash on.

    Just watching her speech to conference.

    I've got a fair bit of good feeling towards the LibDem cause (if I were a Unionist that would be my party and post-independence I would like to see Scotland as a centrist country and would happily vote for a Scottish version) but I just cannot take to her at all.

    She absolutely reeks of insincerity.

    It takes a bit of doing but of all the cretins in the political arena right now, she's the one that annoys me the most.

    Yes, this is the word. You just could not trust her.

    I also hate the way she continually says "well you know" when asked a challenging question.

    It's a shame because you get the feeling that the stage is set for the LibDems here, with the big 2 parties being in crisis.

    Paddy Ashdown, Menzies Campbell, Vince Cable, Shirley Williams - it would have been great to think that we might have one of this lot as a potential PM at as difficult a time as this. Good, genuine, trustworthy and competent people.

    I just don't get that feeling with Swinson at all.
