He qualified as a Scottish Chartered Accountant.
Early Political Career[edit | edit source]
On leaving university he worked for a year as a researcher for Lib Dem MP Archy Kirkwood
Parliamentary Career[edit | edit source]
Michael took over David Steel's seat. Like virtually every other unionist in Scotland, he lost it to the SNP in the 2015 general election, coming an embarrassingly distant third in a seat he'd won with a 5,000 vote majority only five years before.

Personal Life[edit | edit source]
Appearance[edit | edit source]
The former Scottish Secretary likes to pout. It's almost all he does. When pouting (99.9% of the time), he looks rather like a DUCK.
It could be his reaction to being sacked as Scotland Minister for being too nice, or it could be a ploy to woo the dashingly handsome Mark Harper. The two have been seen flirting and exchanging pokémon cards behind Nick Clegg's back in the HoC.
