Jim Murphy's Scottish brogue betrays his little-known Westcountry connection. The son of a Glaswegian pipe fitter, Labour's Shadow Defence Secretary lived in a caravan in Plymouth as toddler when his father worked at the city's dockyard.

Wherever you've lived is part of who you are." Mr Murphy's younger brother was born in Plymouth, and still checks the Argyle score. The dockyard was "teeming with work" then, he notes, but living in a caravan was a "rough life".
