	Encyclopedia: Michael Forsyth (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Michael Bruce Forsyth, Baron Forsyth of Drumlean, PC, is a Conservative politician in the United Kingdom.
		Forsyth's persistence was widely credited with prompting the Labour Party's unexpected decision - bitterly criticised by the Liberal Democrats and the Scottish National Party - to separate out the tax-varying issue in a two-question referendum on devolution.
		Forsyth first entered parliament for Stirling in the 1983 election, and lost his seat to Anne McGuire from Labour in the 1997 election.

		Michael Forsyth: "The shambles are Labour's proposals for Scotland"
		Scottish Secretary Michael Forsyth has made his first appearance of the campaign by trying - like John Major in Britain as a whole - to draw a line under the turmoil which has engulfed the Tory party in Scotland.
		Mr Forsyth was heard from very little and seen not at all last week, despite problems over the standing down of Allan Stewart in Eastwood and the resignation of Sir Michael Hirst as Scottish Conservative Party chairman - both as a result of personal problems.

	Michael's "Wee Magic Stane", by Gerry Cairns, SWR 1997 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Messrs Forsyth, Robertson, Wallace and (even) Salmond have been seen churning out the same old arguments to a public who really haven't been listening for a long, long time.
		Auld Scots apathy is partly to blame for this, as is the fact that nothing has happened of any real note in Scottish politics, not since Tommy Sheridan's Militant burst onto the scene breathing new life into "British socialism" north of the border.
		This was the setting for Michael Forsyth, Secretary of State Against Scotland, to announce that the Stone of Destiny (the "Stane") was being returned home from Westminster Abbey.

		FORSYTH: Yes but this is where the great danger in the game that Labour and the Liberals are playing is, because if you argue that majorities in the Constituent parts of the United Kingdom should determine policy and legislation in those parts, you are a separatist, that is a nationalist position.
		FORSYTH: Well, as far as Labour Government is concerned, the decision to have a vote on a Tartan tax was imposed on the Scottish Labour Party from Islington by Tony Blair.
		FORSYTH: Secondly, the proposal does not involve maintaining an over-representation in terms of population, of Members of Parliament from north of the Border and thirdly, the situation in Northern Ireland is quite different from that which pertains in Scotland in England - and, that has always been accepted, including by Mr Robertson.

		In 1987, the Tories lost no less than 11 of their 21 Scottish seats, but Forsyth was one of the survivors, holding on with a 948 majority, again over Michael Connarty who became MP for Falkirk East in 1992.
		As the representative of Stirling, the site of Scottish victories in 1296 and 1314, Michael Forsyth claimed to be the natural successor of Robert the Bruce, although he belittled Sir William Wallace as a 'loser'.
		Scottish Secretary Michael Forsyth's demise had been a standing General Election prediction however, it was difficult to see Scotland's most Thatcherite MP holding on in 1997, especially as the removal of the rock-solid Tory Bridge of Allan ward to Ochil had reduced his notional majority to just 236.
