No constituencies won by @ReformUKScot. Here's a suggestion. In the next Holyrood election, instead of voting for Reform, take the ballot paper, shove it up your arse and set fire to it. The effect will be just the same as wasting your vote on a losing Reform candidate. Enjoy.

Regarding the loans given by Murrell to the SNP, does this not mean that the SNP has been bankrolled by criminally illegal cash? Isn't this the kind of thing that 'money laundering' legislation was introduced to prevent?

Nicola Sturgeon and her crooked husband lived the high life using money stolen from their own people ... And she knew NOTHING? Aye right. news.stv.tv/scotland/peter…

Can the @BBCNews stop saying Nicola Sturgeon was “cleared”. She wasn’t cleared, she wasn’t charged. It’s not the same.

@staylorish @ka8895 Swinney really has become a vile, arrogant, abusive creature. To insult a civilised person like Jackie Baillie in that way certainly shows him as a creep without an ounce of integrity.

In all seriousness, how slimy is @JohnSwinney? His insistence on covering up for his beloved former boss @NicolaSturgeon will end his political career. @StephenflynnMP will be First Minister before Christmas and Swinney will be at home looking after his wife.
@GinaDavidson@ginadavidsonlbc

Asked if he was party to shutting down questions internally he says he’s “not conscious of doing that” - and on reports of Nicola Sturgeon’s no comment police interview, he says…. ”no comment” @LBCNewsScot l @LBCNews

The Presiding Officer has selected an Urgent Question for this afternoon. @Rachael2Win will ask @ScotGov what assessment it has made of the impact on public confidence in political institutions in Scotland following the guilty plea by former SNP chief executive Peter Murrell.

Our reporter @conor_matchett has just asked John Swinney if he thinks giving a 'no comment' interview (as Nicola Sturgeon did) is fully cooperating with police (as Sturgeon promised to do). FM's response: "I've got no comment to offer about police investigations."
Chris Musson@ChrisMusson

EXCL: Nicola Sturgeon refused to comment and sat in silence for hours during her police interview - despite publicly claiming to be "cooperating fully" with cops thescottishsun.co.uk/news/16305227/…

@OpulentNetOtter I know you're embarrassed and ashamed by the conduct of your former leader. So you should be. Unfortunately for you and her, no amount of revisionism will change what she did. Just be thankful Sturgeon is just Scotland's Nixon. Imagine if she had become our Elena Ceaușescu?

@Erudite4Unity Let me get the crayons out to help you understand: Nixon pardoned before criminal investigation. Sturgeon cleared after criminal investigation. Hope this helps!

So the SNP won 6 Westminster and Holyrood elections in the period in which the party's Chief Executive Officer was embezzling party funds. In all 6 elections, the SNP campaign was managed by Peter Murrell. What was the scale of SNP illegality in each of these elections?

@OpulentNetOtter No, you got so close but you let yourself down right at the end. Neither Nixon nor Sturgeon faced a single charge. Sturgeon called this "being completely cleared" when it was nothing of the sort. In time, the Murrell/Sturgeon spending spree will be known as Scotland's Watergate.

@OpulentNetOtter Just like Sturgeon, Nixon was never charged with a single crime. Following police inquiries, Sturgeon was told that no action would be taken against her. She said, "In other words, I am completely in the clear." Sturgeon wasn't cleared. Police simply chose not to press charges.

@Erudite4Unity You said Nixon was cleared. He wasn't. He was pardoned prior to a potential criminal investigation. I think you need to read up on your history as well as the basic meaning of different words.
