SNP MP hit by adultery site hack

A SCOTTISH MP joined Transport for London, London Fire Brigade and council workers yesterday among the victims of a data hack against adultery website Ashley Madison.

Edinburgh West MP Michelle Thomson denied the connection, saying “an out-of-use email address” had been used.

The data dump, which included names and addresses of 37 million Ashley Madison users, was released earlier this week by hacking group the Impact Team.
