After being elected to Holyrood she was the Conservative deputy spokeswoman on home affairs. Prior to the 2003 election she was moved from first to third place on the Conservative's list for Central Scotland. After parliament was dissolved she followed her colleague Keith Harding and defected to the newly formed Scottish People's Alliance. She subsequently fought Kilmarnock and Loudoun for the SPA but came in a very poor eighth place with only 371 votes (1.2%).

She became a member of the national policy committee of the New Party, the successor to the SPA.[1]
