So we've got two Reform MSPs now. That’s not great. They’ll be rubbish and probably racist.
But, we don’t need to take this passively. It’s time to start holding them to account, to expose their shortcomings, to announce their mistakes.
Write to them about your *local* issues, write to our local and regional papers when they don’t perform, or handle your query/request with a slogan.
In short, make them work.
It’s the quickest way to show them up.
