Those nice people at Core TV have been interviewing MPs so we can find out more about them.
Remember Jamie Stone, the ferret and the pantomime dame?
Christine Jardine’s interview was very different. There was some light-hearted stuff about her hidden talents, but also some very personal reflections on the death of her husband during last year’s general election campaign which will resonate with anyone who has suffered that sort of loss.
Find out, too, what motivates her in politics, who she’s there for.

Christine was at (at least) one of the prospective parliamentary candidate sessions at Spring Conference and spoke honestly and with good humour about her campaign, her loss, and even the attacks on her from SNP activists.
Despite never having met her, or heard her speak before – she has made a lasting impression, and I’m proud that we are both members of the same party.
Apologies- for accuracy: by “her loss” I mean the death of her husband. She obviously did not lose the campaign. Sorry for the clumsy wording.
