Kids Encyclopedia Facts

The Scottish National Party (SNP) is a political party in Scotland. This page lists the people from the SNP who were elected to be Members of Parliament (MPs) in the House of Commons in the United Kingdom.

MPs are like representatives for different areas. They work in the UK Parliament to make decisions for the country. This list covers the time from 2005 to 2010. It includes MPs who were elected in the main election in 2005, and also those who were elected later in special elections called by-elections. A by-election happens when an MP leaves their job before the next main election, so a new one needs to be chosen.

The list below is sorted by the MP's last name.
