AN ELDENE-born MP has reacted to a rival's vow to send him "homeward".
Luke Graham, the Conservative MP for Ochill and South Perthshire, was born in Swindon and educated at Dorcan Academy. The 34-year-old was elected in 2017.
Scottish National Party rival Graham Lindsay has been accused by the MP of using divisive language following comments made in a campaign video.
Mr Lindsay said: "I believe I'm the right person to expose Luke and his harmful policies and send him homeward."
Responding, Mr Graham told The Scotsman:"The mask has slipped - this is the kind of negative, divisive language at the heart of the SNP. If Mr Lindsay wants me to go home, he can pay for my taxi to Auchterarder. It'll be a cheap trip."
