They are left two Green Party MSPs who campaign mainly on the radical trans rights agenda and seldom mention the environment, classic student politicians who've never worked commercially. The SNP Govt needs their votes for a majority at Holyrood so they're particular ideologies are over-represented as a result, This shift also explains the rise of Salmond's Alba Party, Nationalism without the radical left wing elements.

Ah I know, I grew up nearby, it has fond memories. God save us from politicians...
Without the income from the many, many USAF / ANG transit stops, there's no likely sale and we might end up with nice new housing and no airport. And Greer and Harvie would be most pleased, so given their anti-Trump rhetoric, why stop at the Israelis? They're rabidly anti US foreign policy too.
