Newly-elected SNP MP Lara Bird, who appeared to cross her fingers whilst swearing allegiance to King Charles, has been accused of putting on a fake Scottish accent.
Video recorded in January has emerged of the new Arbroath and Broughty Ferry MP speaking with an English accent. Ms Bird, who is half-Scottish, half-English, was raised in Scotland before studying at the University of Sheffield in 2018 and then moving to London.
