What Tommy Sheridan did next
Martin Geissler and Natalie Higgins hear why ex-MSP Tommy Sheridan is taking one council to court after retraining as a social worker.
Tommy Sheridan (pictured) made his name in politics protesting the poll tax and leading the Socialist party into the Scottish Parliament.
He was later jailed for perjury, but should that conviction prevent him starting a new career as a social worker?
He tells Martin about taking Glasgow City Council to court, his 'gender-critical views' and hopes of a political comeback.
