Wendy Alexander's CV...

From her page at the Scottish Parliament:

Career History:

2002 - present Visiting Professor, University of Strathclyde

1997-1998 Special Adviser to the Secretary of State for Scotland

1994-1997 Management Consultant, Booz Allen & Hamilton

1988-1992 Research Officer Scottish Labour Party

1987-1988 Editor, Ledis



Research Officer. That is a touch coy, isn't it Wend? Further and better particulars would show that she was George Galloway's research assistant:

"...Alexander began her political career as a parliamentary assistant to the then Labour MP George Galloway in 1987".
Source

I wonder what she might have learned at the knee of the former member for Glasgow Hillhead / Kelvin?



Meanwhile, more from the same item, as it is amusing:

"She takes on the position of Scottish Labour leader pledging to renew the party and reverse discontent with Labour north of the border. The SNP won May's Holyrood elections because "they seized Labour's agenda of hope and aspiration", she said in her leadership bid. "Well I'm here to tell you that we're going to seize it back."

was that 'seize it back.' or 'sleaze it back'?
