Westminster Parliamentary By-elections


saltire shield'Mr Blackford raised the prospect of by-elections pending in Tommy Graham's constituency of Renfrewshire West and the old SNP-Labour battleground of Govan, where Mohammad Sarwar is currently under police investigation for alleged corruption. If the suspension of both MPs led to their expulsion from the party and even from the House of Commons, then Scottish politics would reach new heights of tension in the West of Scotland.'
