Stephen Flynn accepted a Cabinet job, pocketed the ministerial salary, and is now disappearing to the World Cup while Parliament is sitting.

If the job comes second to football, he should resign and let someone else do it.

Scotland is a country where its government gives a holiday on Monday for public sector workers - including NHS workers - because of a football match between Scotland and Haiti at 2am on Sunday morning. A football match holiday taking priority over national health. Ridiculous.

[Stephen Kerr MSP @RealStephenKerr]

John Swinney's World Cup jolly exposes the SNP's breathtaking hypocrisy.

For years the SNP attacked opponents for missing parliamentary business to attend football matches. John Swinney himself declared that he would not be "skiving off to the football" while Parliament was sitting.

Now he has signed off two of his own ministers doing exactly that.

The issue is not football. It is hypocrisy.

One rule for everyone else. Another for the SNP.

After nearly two decades of SNP government, Scotland faces challenges in our NHS, education system, economy and justice system. Ministers should be focused on the day job, not heading off overseas weeks after taking office.

The entitlement is staggering. The hypocrisy is absolute.

The SNP crucified Douglas Ross for missing parliamentary business to referee football.

Now they're sending FOUR ministers on a taxpayer-funded World Cup jolly while Holyrood is sitting.

Arrogance. Hypocrisy. Entitlement.

That's today's SNP in three words.

It is astonishing that Peter Murrell is entitled to legal aid.

Hard-pressed Scots who are being hammered by the highest taxes in the UK are now expected to pick up the legal tab for Nicola Sturgeon’s disgraced husband.

At the same time, we have heard examples of survivors of domestic abuse being denied legal aid, but somehow Murrell, who Sturgeon claimed was a high-earning individual, is entitled to legal aid.

What a disgrace 😤

He's going to have to resign.

His position is now clearly untenable.

We can't have a First Minister implicated in a massive fraud scandal.

This 👇🏼 is how young women feel about a male cheating in their sport & those in authority treating them as not worthy of their own fair sport - as men still get! Atrocious, disgusting, infuriating, misogynistic & cowardice

[Joanna Cherry KC @joannaccherry]

I see John Swinney has finally admitted that the “ring fenced” fund for a 2nd indyref was spent on other things. Apart from the deceit perpetrated on the donors this does rather beg the question of how the SNP would fund a second indyref campaign if they got a section 30 order.

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

There is no reason a male, no matter what or who he thinks he is, should be allowed to get undressed in front of little girls or un consenting women. It’s utterly insane to base safeguarding or fairness laws on that precarious non reality premise.

[Agent P @AgentP22]

So public money may have been raided from SNP accounts and John Swinney still doesn't want a parliamentary inquiry?

What exactly is he afraid we'll find?

[Agent P @AgentP22]

The next time John Swinney tells you waiting lists are coming down, remember this:

@STVNews re mobile phone ban in schools…. Why don’t you speak to schools in moray who have been doing it for a year?!

[Agent P @AgentP22]

The SNP demanded the windfall tax, cheered it on, and voted for it. Now Stephen Flynn is touring Aberdeen pretending it never happened.

What a 🤡

[Joanna Cherry KC @joannaccherry]

Don’t be fooled. Nicola Sturgeon (wife) is not being held responsible for her husband’s crimes. As leader of the party she is being called to account for her deliberate frustration of the legitimate scrutiny which might have revealed those crimes. The distinction is 💯 clear.

[Joanna Cherry KC @joannaccherry]

Living in a luxury house in London and sipping champagne on the book festival circuit is about as far away from serving a prison sentence as I can imagine. It’s worth remembering that thanks to Nicola Sturgeon vulnerable women in Scottish prisons are banged up with violent men.

[Russell Findlay @RussellFindlay1]

Sturgeon: "Money hasn't gone missing".

SNP finances as solid as their financial case for independence 🤣

[Murdo Fraser MSP @murdo_fraser]

Peter Murrell has now admitted to stealing the best part of half a million pounds from the SNP.
Is it credible that his wife knew nothing of this? As Party leader, was she not curious?
And if the SNP can steal from themselves, what are they capable of doing to the country?

[Agent P @AgentP22]

John Swinney finally admits there would be a hard border between Scotland and England in the event of Scottish independence.

Who in their right mind would vote for that?

[Angela Taylor @AngelaTaylor63]

A96 needs urgent upgrading - only been promised by the @snp since 2011

[Agent P @AgentP22]

Holyrood isn’t even in recess.

So while Scots sit in traffic on the deadly A9, taxpayers are funding Transport Secretary Stephen Flynn to jet off to the USA for the World Cup to be “one of the lads”.

The arrogance is off the scale.

[Agent P @AgentP22]

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.
