@ginadavidsonlbc How many senior members of an @theSNP government does it take to miss serial embezzlement of party funds over a ten year period? 🤔. No punchline as it's no fkn joke!

John Swinney today said he felt “betrayed” by Peter Murrell’s actions - but initially resisted saying sorry to all those who had donated money and says there won’t be any recompense.

Outside John Swinney’s press conference a rather emotional Joanna Cherry tells how she and others had tried to raise concerns about party finances

Response from Nicola Sturgeon posted to her social media:
“My reaction to the guilty plea tendered today by my former husband is difficult to put into words. I am angry, hurt, sad and very distressed about the impact of his actions on family, friends and the SNP.
To be deceived and let down by a husband I loved and trusted has caused me acute pain. Why he acted as he did is, and always will be, beyond my comprehension.
To be clear: I had no knowledge or suspicion whatsoever that he was using SNP funds for personal purposes. I am utterly appalled that he did so and cannot begin to understand why. That I was fully cleared after a thorough investigation underlines that these are not my crimes. I was misled just as others were.
I know that there will be political discussion in light of what has happened, and I understand why. However, for me this has also been a profound personal trauma. I need to remain focussed on recovering from that and building a new phase of life. I will be making no further comment.”

NEW: The SNP’s former chief executive, and estranged husband of Nicola Sturgeon, pleads guilty to embezzlement of more than £400k of party funds. Peter Murrell was handcuffed in court and is being held on remand to appear again on 23 June for sentencing. @itvnews

If Lucy Connolly got 31 months jail for a nasty tweet, what can Peter Murrell expect for a £400K fraud?

@AgentP22 @MaltTaster This is what the working class looks like in India. Some in the west are so easily deluded 🤦♂️

So the Scottish Greens’ newest “working class” MSP turns out to be privately educated, from a wealthy professional family, worked for an elite university consultancy and conveniently left the private education bit off LinkedIn.
What a fraud.
