In Scotland -- SSP makes good use of Facebook

Here's another creative use of Facebook -- in this case by by the Scottish Socialist Party
FACEBOOK GROUP: Frances Curran for Glasgow East - Vote Scottish Socialist Party!

Common Interest - Politics
Description:
Frances Curran is making a stand for socialism in the Glasgow East by-election. The SSP is standing on a socialist manifesto opposed to big business and for public services and decent pay.

As an MSP in the last Scottish Parliament, Frances spurned the lavish Holyrood lifestyle to stay in touch with ordinary people.

She donated tens of thousands of pounds - half her total salary - to the socialist movement. She published every penny of her expenses.

“I lived as a workers MSP on a workers wage, like my other Scottish Socialist Party colleagues,” says Frances.

“If elected as the MP for Glasgow East I’ll do exactly the same again. I believe in improving life for the whole of the East End - and not just for the chosen few who get themselves elected,” says Frances.
