Joanna Cherry, SNP MP

Twitter spat shines a light on SNP divisions

 

Joanna Cherry was involved in a Twitter spat with SNP MP Kirsty Blackman in the run-up to her sacking.

Cherry and Blackman have had heated arguments about trans rights.

Many see the trans rights debate in the SNP as a proxy war between loyalists to Alec Salmond and loyalists to Nicola Sturgeon.
