Political career

In the 1990s, McFee was elected to the Glasgow City Council for the SNP . Here he led the parliamentary group of the SNP for a while and achieved in the 1999 city council elections with 71.1% in his constituency, the highest proportion of votes of all 40 Glasgow city councils. In the Scottish General Election in 2003 , McFee ran for the first time to national elections. He ran in the constituency of West Renfrewshire , for whose direct mandate his party colleague Colin Campbell had applied unsuccessfully in the previous Scottish parliamentary elections in 1999 . McFee clearly missed the direct mandate behind Labor candidate Patricia Godman with a 25.4% share of the vote . Since McFee was also placed on the regional electoral list of the SNP for the electoral region West of Scotland on the second place, he received as a result of the election result one of three list mandates for the SNP in this electoral region and moved into the Scottish Parliament for the first time. McFee did not run for the Scottish general elections in 2007 and left Parliament at the end of the legislative period.
