    Poor Michelle, perhaps we should organise a whip round.

    ..or maybe not. MPs and whips are not a good mix.

    She could of course 'fess up and admit shes playing the field. It's a tactic which works for Boris.

    I honestly have no idea why they bother lying....

    -Everyone knows full well it wasn't "The Hackerz"...

    -She's an SNP member so no matter what she's done short of murdering St Nicola her voters will vote for her anyway.

    -And in this day and age, a cheating politician isn't going to have to quit over it regardless, not even if she was from a party whose supporters didn't offer blind fanatical allegiance like the Nats do.

    Isn't it priceless how absolutely everyone caught out misbehaving online these days always blames it on "the hackers".

    I'm sure the usual 'suspects' will be along shortly to blame it on 'Westminster' :D

    And as if by magic....
    Michelle Thomson, the SNP MP for Edinburgh West, said her identity had been ‘harvested’ as part of a smear campaign against her.

    Doesn't someone need to have gained a public reputation first, to become eligible for smearing?

    Unionists are clearly evil geniuses.

    Signing up SNP members for websites well in advance of them being elected as MP-s, and years before the site was hacked and the data released.

    I think we can safely now add time travel to the list of magical Unionist powers. :)

  • I have to say I used the public wifi in heathrow a few months back, registering with an email address and a slightly different spelling of my name

    Lo and behold, a couple of weeks later I start getting emails from f***buddies (tanya is 23, wet and in your area), using the exact same misspelling of my name.

    I don't think hacking as such, just some places will fire out your details to wherever, regardless of box-ticking the please don't option or not.

    No, I think you were hacked. At a certain sort of IT conference they will flash up your email address and password as they manage to hack your phone as an atendee. Just to show how easy it is if you know how.

    Supposedly some Governments are going back to the typewriter for very sensitive communications.
