Dear All
A piece of unconfirmed gossip, last night I hear that Grant Thoms, the SNP Candidate for Glasgow North East has decided not to put his name forward for the by-election caused by Michael Martin, MP standing down.
Under SNP Party rules with regard to by-elections, candidates need to resubmit themselves for selection even if they previously were the sitting prospective candidate.
I feel that this is a terrible shame that Grant has decided to stand aside as he has many good personal qualities that would make him a decent MP and an asset to the people of Springburn.
I hope that Grant would reconsider if the rumour is true and stand.
I have met him a couple of times and he is worth voting for but at the end of the day, people have to make their own mind up how they want their career to go forward.

He is a good Councillor and a good listener, the kind of excellent material sadly lacking in Westminister.
