Political career

In 1993, Glen was elected to Dundee City Council. After the resignation of the Labor politician and MP for the constituency of Dundee East John McAllion , Glen was initially intended as the successor for the 2001 general election , but was then replaced by Iain Luke . In the first Scottish general election in 1999, Glen was placed second on the Labor Party's regional electoral list for the electoral region of North East Scotland . As a result of the election results, however, she did not receive any of the seven list mandates and thus missed the entry into the newly created Scottish Parliament . For the Scottish parliamentary elections in 2003 , Glen was placed first on the regional electoral list and won a list mandate for the electoral region for the first time. In the following parliamentary elections in 2007 , she defended her mandate. After Glen announced that she would not run for the 2011 general election, she resigned from parliament at the end of the parliamentary term.
