The view from here - SNP press office.

You have to hand it to those looking through the far end of telescope lense at the SNP press office which last night, in the middle of the momenteous events at Westminster, celebrated the party's performance in a Glasgow Council by-election.

"SNP HAIL FANTASTIC RESULT IN GLASGOW BY-ELECTION" was the headline.

"The SNP have hailed the results of the Anniesland/Drumchapel by-election in Glasgow which saw a swing of nearly 10% from Labour to the SNP,“trumpted the press release. "Labour have suffered in this by-election".

If you open the Herald at page 6 today you'll see how Brian Currie reported the actual result with the headline: "Labour ousts SNP in Glasgow by-election".
