So last week Mohammad Sarwar retired as an MP. You may have missed this since he neglected to make the customary valedictory speech in the House of Commons. This is the one where retiring MPs reflect on their time as an MP, say some words of farewell and thank their constituents.
It's unusual he didn't make one. It may just be indicative of his poor 57% attendance rate in Parliament that he didn't get round to it. He was busy doing whatever it is he was doing.
Maybe he's hoping that some voters don't take notice there is a different Sarwar on their ballot paper this time around, as he doesn't look too dissimilar in the leaflets.
Or perhaps it's something to do with the attitude expressed in this video that has emerged.
The people of Glasgow Central deserve better than this. It won't be difficult being more active than him, but I intend to be positively hyperactive in comparison.
