Scottish political hacks “set aboot” Jury Team candidate John Smeaton
Have-a-go hero John Smeaton was thrown in a the deep (and promptly drowned) at a press conference to announce his candidacy in the Glasgow North East by-election. Perhaps Jury Team, who are fielding a slate of “independent” candidates in forthcoming elections, might want to, erm, brief their candidates properly?
How not to prepare someone for a press conference.

“We’ll set aboot ye, Mr. Speaker”
A whole load of fun has been injected into the Glasgow North East by-election with the addition of a new candidate to the fray. John Smeaton, who was catapulted to fame as the baggage handler who kicked ten shades of shit out assisted in the apprehension of a man who was on fire one of the Glasgow Airport attempted bombers, has pledged to “badger” MPs and “bring a storm to Westminster” if elected.
“You’re no’ hitting the Polis mate, there’s nae chance .. Glasgow doesn’t accept this. This is Glasgow; we’ll set aboot ye.” – John Smeaton
