New MP Amy Callaghan is a class act for Kirkintilloch pupils on her first day at Westminster
Ms Callaghan, who stunningly defeated former Lib-Dem leader Jo Swinson in the general election, had only arrived in Westminster for the first time just hours before meeting the pupils.
Students from the Kirkintilloch secondary school were given a tour of the House of Commons before meeting with their newly elected MP.

“This wasn’t just a campaign slogan, it was a commitment. A commitment to each person throughout East Dunbartonshire that I’m on hand to help in any way I can.
“St Ninian’s is an absolute shining light of our community and that is reflected in the staff and students of the school. It was a pleasure meeting them and I can’t wait to work with them more over my time as their MP.”
