Following the victory at a by-election of the Scottish National Party in the parliamentary constituency of Glasgow East earlier that year, despite Fife not having a history of such spectacular landslide swings to the SNP in the past as in the West of Scotland, it had been expected that Labour would lose the by-election, however the Labour Party held the seat increasing their total vote slightly, although with a reduced majority. Lindsay Roy was a member of the Scottish Affairs Select Committee.[6] 2010 general electionIn the 2010 election he polled 25,247 votes, 62.3% of the votes cast, an increase of 10.4%, easily securing re-election.[7] Notes and references1. ^{{cite news|last1=MacPhee|first1=Catriona|title=Lindsay Roy MP confirms he has Parkinson's as condition deteriorates|url=http://news.stv.tv/east-central/308051-lindsay-roy-glenrothes-and-fife-mp-to-stand-down-as-he-has-parkinsons/|accessdate=30 March 2015|publisher=STV|date=27 January 2015}} 2. ^1 2 "Roy, Lindsay Allan" in "Who's Who 2007", A & C Black. 3. ^{{London Gazette |issue=57315 |date=12 June 2004 |linkeddate= |page=8 |supp=y }} 4. ^1 [https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/2669304/Gordon-Browns-head-teacher-is-Labour-candidate-for-Glenrothes.html Gordon Brown's Headteacher is Labour Candidate for Glenrothes], Daily Telegraph, 2 September 2008 5. ^Profile: Labour's Lindsay Roy {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120218035459/http://www.inthenews.co.uk/news/politics/profile-lindsay-roy-%241248275.htm |date=18 February 2012 }}, inthenews.co.uk, 7 November 2008 6. ^[https://www.theyworkforyou.com/mp/lindsay_roy/glenrothes Lindsay Roy MP, Glenrothes].
