I suspect the lads are hinting at her time as Chair of the St Aloysius College PTA. Her three sons were educated at the Jesuit bastion.

Given she was raised in a Presbyterian heartland it's surprising she's involved with a catholic school. Her husband seems to have roots in Lewis too which again is a Presbyterian heartland. Might just be they didn't consider religion important and chose the best fee paying school in their area. In any case it's not what it seems.

I think you're right actually. Her husband will have been raised catholic but she will have raised a presbyterian herself.

BBCPQ seems to employ a very significant number of high profile persons from Irish/catholic/nationalist/ republican backgrounds.

This for a supposedly  U.K. broadcaster seems quite a strange state of affairs does it not?

Do they Rab? I'm not sure that's true actually. Most nationalists I know are convinced Pacific Quay is filled with MI5 agents spreading interference. 

BBC Scotland have a number of issues but I'm not convinced they've got an imbalance along those lines.

In my opinion they've issues around getting working class people into broadcasting and there's a disproportionate number of Gaelic speakers.
