    As a now-distant observer, can somebody local explain why glaswegians elected such a type in the first place, and is there hope for the left to rise above its factions, to offer more hope than such populism ?

      Flag shaggin bastards mostly. Plenty of flute players who believe the tories are the only path to redemption. They get so hard seeing the disgust the rest of us have for them and their ilk. Largely driven by a football team allegiance too
