Julie Hyde, new Member of the Scottish Parliament for the Scottish National Party representing the Strathkelvin and Bearsden constituency made a journalist's head explode yesterday.
Speaking from her constituency office, Ms. Hyde said 'I am proud to have won this by-election despite being on maternity leave.'
'It is a measure of the confidence and the forward thinking of our constituents.'
'Those who said a woman taking time off to raise a child shouldn't run will know the wrath of our party and myself.'
'Basically I'm an SNP MSP on SMP who's a VIP with PMT so QED don't FWM (Fuck With Me)'
