In the meteor storm of the 56 SNP MPs that arrived in Westminster in 2015 after the independence referendum, Natalie McGarry was a star in the making.
Having already established herself a voice in the Women for Independence campaign, the then-34-year-old came out swinging against the British establishment and crusading for impoverished voters in the Glasgow East seat she won with a 31 per cent swing to the SNP.
McGarry came from a dynasty of SNP campaigners. Her mother was a prominent Fife councillor and her aunt, Tricia Marwick, became an SNP MSP and presiding officer of the Holyrood parliament.
