An 18-year-old SNP member who was named after the founder of the Labour party says Keir Hardie would be "rolling in his grave" if he could see the current state of the party he created.
Mr Hardie would "probably be a member of the SNP" himself, says Keir Low, whose parents were such big fans of the first ever Labour MP that they gave their son his name.
Does Mr Low or his parents regret the decision now that Labour has "betrayed" them? "No, because I know that Keir Hardie himself, if he was to see where the Labour party are now he would be rolling in his grave and he would probably be a member of the SNP," says Mr Low, who comes from Argyle in western Scotland.
"There's no other way of describing him as a true believer in Scottish independence and socialism and social justice.
"Unfortunatley, since i was born the Labour party no longer stand for any of it and have shot themselves in the foot," he adds.
