  Margaret Ewing   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
MARGARET Ewing, the Scottish Nationalist MSP, who has died aged 60, was a self-proclaimed "tough nut" who spent more than 30 years battling political rivals and surviving bouts of ill health to become established as one of the SNP's most popular figures.
Instead, she relied on a forceful personality and individualism, a style that allowed her to build a solid base for the SNP in Moray where she was a tireless constituency worker and champion of rural Scotland, especially the fishing communities of the north-east.
Mrs Ewing was born Margaret Anne McAdam and attended the high school in Biggar and then Jordanhill College of Education where she qualified in teaching children with special needs.
