Does anyone know what job(s) Sarah Boyack did before she went into politics?

A statement that Boyack's moves to twin the University of Glasgow with Bir Zeit University (on the West Bank) resulted in conflict between "supporters and opponents of Zionism" appeared inflamatory, and was unreferenced. I have modified it to the more genteel "caused controversy". — Preceding

I have removed the "Constituency Created" entry opposite "Predecessor" which was simply wrong. However it is misleading to use "Predecessor" on a seven member regional list and that is why I removed it altogether rather than edit it. The addition of the "small case" comment that this person is one of seven members makes the new reader better aware of status but I invite others to consider whether other formulations may be better. In a week's time, if no adverse comment on this change, I will look at standardising across all 56 Regional List members. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.159.200.43 (talk) 08:04, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
