@DaveGiqlx @afneil I bet you watched the video she put out sternly informing the gullible hordes that there was absolutely no issues with the finances & nodded along like the sad little cult member you are. ‘Nothing to see here!’ 😂 #AyerightSturgeon

And now he’s pleaded guilty to the whole caboodle. Does this mean he obstructed the investigation by lying for years?
Andrew Neil@afneil
The Peter Murrell/SNP embezzlement trial begins in Edinburgh today. It has taken Police Scotland and the Procurator Fiscal Service five years investigation and process — at a cost of >£2m — to get to here. All for a £1/2m embezzlement charge.

@carlfhoward @afneil @paulafr68963440 Farage took £5m from a Thai-based billionaire to do his bidding and folk still voted Reform in large numbers.
English
@DaveGiqlx @afneil @paulafr68963440 My assumption was that they were both in on it but I don't live in Scotland and frankly don't give a shit. Scottish people seem to love them no matter what.

@nadhimzahawi The absolute neck of tories who caused the brexit boats crisis in the first place.
English
8,500 illegal crossings since January, mostly young men of fighting age. That’s 8,500 homes or hotel rooms, and a growing national security risk. If this isn’t a national emergency, what is?
Where is the urgency from the PM, Home Secretary and Parliament? Britain cannot keep sleepwalking into decline. Only @reformparty_uk is willing to confront this self-harm. 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽💔
Jack Elsom@JackElsom
The warm weather has seen three consecutive days of Channel crossings totalling 912 migrant arrivals. This year there have been 8,488 arrivals - the lowest since 2023, although still clearly a massive figure. Shabana Mahmood will be hoping not to emulate 2022, when a *comparatively* low first half of the year ballooned into a record spike. 2022: 7,987 -> 45,755 2023: 7,395 -> 29,437 2024: 10,170 -> 36,816 2025: 13,617 -> 41,472 2026: 8,488 -> ?

@murdo_fraser @JohnSwinney @ScotParl Turdo is a millionaire after doing nothing for Scotland for 20 years. He is desperate to keep his grift going till he pops off. Ban the list grifters, they offer nothing.
English
With impeccable timing, tomorrow @JohnSwinney will be ask @ScotParl to back calls for powers over another independence referendum.
These are people who can’t be trusted with their own Party members’ money, and now they want power over the whole country’s finances?
No thanks.

@KennyMacAskill I promise to tell the truth the whole truth, and nothing like the truth so help me Peter.
English
@calummiller @KennyMacAskill @WingsScotland Boris Johnson took £1m to destroy the UK in 2019 so STFU
English
@KennyMacAskill @WingsScotland Difficult to escape the conclusion that those who failed governance of the SNP are busy running Scotland: Iain Lawson had the right measure of them all.
English
@Ally4Clash @KennyMacAskill Alba went bust after massive fraud, can't make it up 🤣
English
@KennyMacAskill Fuck off Kenny, unless you have concrete evidence then get in the fucking bin with the rest of the losers who thought alba were the answer to independence.
English
@davidlloydreid This moron supports Alba who went bust pending fraud investigations. Idiot.
English
It's taken more than 3 years to get to today. Just two weeks after these liars and charlatans were re-elected by an ill-informed populace. But hey, this is Scotland -the land where cheats prosper. bbc.co.uk/news/live/cddp…
English
@gracebrod1e This is why Alba went bust, halfwits like you holding the purse strings.
Where's the money, Denise, what did you do with it?
English
I think people are forgetting the 600k ring fenced fund. This is not the cash stolen by Murrell going back to 2010. The cash he stole was from SNP party coffers
Where is the ring fenced 600k 🤷♀️
English
@JoaniReid Is Rachel Reeves going to be investigated over the campervan she was spotted using, if not, why not.
English
The Peter Murrell case is extremely serious. More than £400,000 taken from SNP funds over many years is a grave breach of trust.
But the nature of the spending does not read like ordinary financial pressure or simple greed. It does not even read like normal criminal self-enrichment.
It reads like a man in real difficulty, struggling with something serious.
There is no joy in any of it.
English
@JoaniReid He was a nonentity granted immense power, bit like Angela Rayner stealing that stamp duty.
English
£400,000 embezzled from the SNP by Peter Murrell, but where did it all go? Previous reporting pointed to:
Campervan: £124,550 of party funds, said to be for Murrell’s personal use.
Jaguar I-PACE: £57,500 of SNP money towards an £81,000 car.
Volkswagen Golf: £16,489 towards a £33,000 car.
Also, jewellery, cosmetics, designer and luxury goods, shoes, and a luxury pen (whatever that is).
English
@Wood_Tedster @steviexdavis @tomhfh How many in Reform knew Farage took £5m from a Thai-based billionaire for crimes committed against every one of us. The SNP were obviously a shambles, so were labour, they bought a campervan as well. And the boris bus, wow, corruption everywhere 😂
English
English
@SylDeLaMer @sinton_alison @murdo_fraser He pled guilty for a lesser sentence, don't you watch cop shows.
English
@DaveGiqlx @sinton_alison @murdo_fraser Except it wasn’t. If it was it wouldn’t be on the indictment and he wouldn’t have pled guilty to that part of the charge.
English
What an imbecilic comment. This is a day of shame for the SNP, we need to hear apologies, not excuses and deflection.
Kelly Given@kellylgiven
A man has literally admitted to the crime, but let’s hold his wife responsible instead. Nothing misogynistic to see here. 👍🏼
English
@SylDeLaMer @sinton_alison @murdo_fraser So I'm right in saying you've never ever bothered your arse to look at the accounts, correct? The assets logged in the SNP accounts at the time show motor vehicles valued at £80k. Why not engage your brain rather than your mouth now and again.
English
@FionaMc79461755 @piers_J_morgan @tomhfh The jag was sold by Murrell, not by the police, presume that is what you are saying. He is an obscene little man but he's using these cars for SNP business as well as personal so not sure what's illegal.
English
@DaveGiqlx @piers_J_morgan @tomhfh Many items are under Proceeds of Crime Act confiscation orders. The cars have apparently been sold
English
@GitUseless @joannaccherry The fact there is no embezzlement accusations regarding the 2017 referendum fund is being deliberately overlooked by Cherry.
English
@joannaccherry Your thread seems to be confusing the issue. The charges against Murrell have got nothing to do with the referendum donations as they were not directly embezzled. The Crown want people to think Murrells charges are in relations to fund raising appeals.
English
The real victims of Murrell’s crimes are the ordinary Independence Supporters who gave their hard earned cash to the SNP with the express purpose of furthering the cause of independence. They will want to know how their donations could have been embezzled for so long without 1/6
English
@joannaccherry I'm sure you know he has pled guilty for a reduced sentence, not because every allegation would be proven. The campervan was hardly a secret, he wasn't spotted going around the Algarve in it.
English
Some of those who did nothing or actively sought to shutdown legitimate questions & bullied and intimidated the group trying to sort out the problems have recently been elected as MSPs. I would question whether they are fit people to hold such positions of responsibility. 6/6
