An SNP MP has apologised for flouting the present ScotRail booze ban on a Glasgow service.
Video footage emerged which seems to point out Mhairi Black, consultant for Paisley and Renfrewshire South, ingesting from a can - supposedly of lager.
It's understood the politician had been travelling from Glasgow Central final evening after a soccer match between Ayr United and Partick Thistle.
Within the video, first reported by The Spectator, the MP is surrounded by different rail passengers donned in purple and yellow.
She may be seen taking a swig from the tin as different passengers are captured chanting.
It's at present prohibited to eat alcohol on a ScotRail service.
The rule had been put in place as a "short-term measure" to stop transmission of Covid-19 in November 2020.
Nonetheless, the booze ban rule was prolonged for 17 months when ministers took the helm of the rail operator on April 1.
It means passengers are at present unable to deliver their very own alcoholic drinks on trains or buy them from employees.
Moreover, the MP can be and not using a masks within the clip whereas officers proceed to suggest the usage of face coverings throughout Covid-19.
An SNP spokesperson stated: "Mhairi has been reminded of the principles and apologises."
