This online meeting’s a pane! SNP councillor caught washing her windows after leaving camera on<\/h1>\n

Balancing work and home life can be tricky at the best of times.<\/p>\n

But the provost of Inverness\u00a0surprised colleagues when she started cleaning her windows \u2013 in the middle of an important debate.<\/p>\n

SNP councillor Glynis Campbell Sinclair joined the Inverness area committee meeting via video link from her home\u00a0on Monday.<\/p>\n

But after telling councillors they were \u2018all going to have to make very hard decisions\u2019 due to Highland Council\u2019s \u2018budget situation\u2019, she got up and began doing her household chores.<\/p>\n

During the two-minute clip, the provost can be seen shaking out a white cloth before she briefly\u00a0disappears from sight to pick up a basin of water. With her pet dogs also in shot, she then walks to the back of the room and starts to clear items so she can begin\u00a0cleaning the window.<\/p>\n

After a few seconds, Ms Campbell Sinclair runs towards the computer and appears to answer a phone call before she quickly switches her camera off.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Glynis Campbell Sinclair said she barely gets a \u2018nanosecond\u2019 to herself most days and did some \u2018multi-tasking\u2019 when the council debate was almost finished<\/p>\n

After a few seconds, Ms Campbell Sinclair runs towards the computer and quickly switches her camera off\u00a0<\/p>\n

It is understood the call was from a colleague telling her she had inadvertently left the device\u2019s webcam on.<\/p>\n

Defending her actions, she told BBC Scotland News most days she does not get a \u2018nanosecond\u2019 to herself as she juggles council roles with a busy family life.<\/p>\n

She said: \u2018I have 12 horses to look after, four of them are elderly and require stabling most nights.\u2019 But she stressed: \u2018I had played a full part in the debate and it was almost finished when I did some multi-tasking.\u2019<\/p>\n

Councillor Alasdair Christie, who was at the meeting, described the provost\u2019s actions as \u2018priceless\u2019.<\/p>\n

He said: \u2018We were all surprised that in the middle of discussing really important issues for Inverness this took place. It\u2019s not a great advert for \u201clocal government works hard\u201d, is it?\u2019<\/p>\n

The provost\u2019s cleaning efforts began two hours and 37 minutes into the meeting, as councillors debated new schools funding.<\/p>\n

The footage, available on Highland Council\u2019s website, shows a split screen and, while the provost gets on with her cleaning, other councillors continuing to debate.<\/p>\n

Highland Council said it was \u2018not appropriate\u2019 to comment on the conduct of councillors.<\/p>\n
