Mr Martin's Xbox.


From the Herald Diary, "Game for a laugh ... after Scottish Labour leader Wendy Alexander's dodgy financial donations, reader Jim Waugh in Germany notices on the website of website designer Streamline that it has given Wendy's fellow Glasgow Labour MSP Paul Martin not money, but a free Xbox 360 video game console as a thank-you for letting them design his website. We wonder if Paul plays the biggest selling Xbox game, Halo 3, in which you become the Master Chief, a cybernetically-enhanced supersoldier, waging war against alien races. And does he picture SNP leader Alex Salmond, or perhaps even Wendy, as he blasts away at the aliens?"

Surely Mr Martin could have afforded to just buy one himself if he wanted one? Or asked his father, House of Commons Speaker Michael Martin MP, to get him one for his Christmas or next birthday?
Now we know what Paul does in between Parliamentary debates at Holyrood.
