It comes four days after the SNP's former Westminster leader announced he planned to bid for the seat.The seat was won from the SNP by the former Scottish Conservative leader at the last Scottish Parliament election in 2016 but Ms Davidson has indicated she will be stepping down at the next poll in May 2021.

Wow - the trolls on here !!! All paid by Cummings I presume. 😂

No - both seeking selection

wtf is barry from eastenders doing there lol

Why's Barry from Eastenders sitting next to her?

Her current constituents must Be overjoyed...that they are not good enough for mad mother cherry...

Robertson is a Tory by nature

What's that got to do with England?

Stolen babies in Serbia!

They are all power crazy in the SNP. Throw them into a pit and let them get on with it.

It’s like the fricking Wombles up there! All trying to clean up the SNP but failing miserably.

If the Scots are such big fans of Europe, they should adopt their approach to double mandates. Edinburgh doesn't deserve a double dose of TERFiness with her vying for a second lucrative job.

This will have unanimous support in Westminster.

FFS, infighting within the cult, can only end badly
