@ProfPMiddleton @theSNP Where, exactly, does Findlay make this concession?

9/10
The ring-fenced indyref fund raised ~£667,000. Murrell embezzled £400,310.
Even accounting for every penny he stole, more than £250,000 of what donors were explicitly promised was protected referendum money remains unaccounted for in any public reckoning.
Swinney's answer — it was independence resources, used for independence — doesn't close that gap. It reframes it.
There are only two positions available. They cannot both be true. And either way, donors were misled.

So true

Given her level of income, it's likely that Nicola Sturgeon will save over £6,000 per annum in tax by living in England.
SNP - creaming money off hard working Scots living in Scotland.

I now believe John Swinney is avoiding any inquiry because he knows perfectly well where it will lead.

An inquiry would not stop at Peter Murrell’s bank statements.

It would walk straight into SNP headquarters, ministerial offices and every room where people were told to shut up.

SNP Bad!

John Swinney and the Scottish Government have been held in contempt of court, by the Court of Session (Scotland's highest civil court) over their refusal to cooperate with the independent Scottish Information Commissioner

What happened to openness and transparency?

[The EA 🇬🇧 @No_Bikers]

The cover-up is still going on.
Swinney is petrified someone outside the SNP opens up the cupboards. There's too many skeletons.

Roddy Dunlop represented the SG vs Alex Salmond back in 2018/19 (he threatened to resign). Recently, he represented the SIC in its successful action vs the SG in which it was found in contempt*, is representing the SIC later this year for the Hamilton documents and now this.

Maybe we should ask Lara where the economic assessment is for leaving the U.K. Ask her how those on lower wages will fare compared to the higher earners such as MSPs (and yes, I know it’s the big WM salary and pension she is trying for). Ask Lara what the impact on day 1 will be.

[Claire Valentine @JuraMurphy]

@BrechinYes2 I will try to keep this polite. My elderly mum donated over a grand to the ring fence fund and this crap has broken her. We don’t care about the other parties, we care about the party who we all worked our butts off for and exploited us. How dare you imply we’re unionists.

SNP Safeguarding Systems and Chocolate Teapots

Fair point from Alex Massie - the protections John Swinney says were in place to protect SNP funds were about as much use as a chocolate teapot

For example, Murrell was allowed to approve his own expenses - no questions asked

[The EA 🇬🇧 @No_Bikers]

Swinney's worst nightmare is about to unfold.
He won't be able to lie or hide.

[Dubhghall @macnahgalla]

@COPFS have advised @PoliceScotland not to investigate the complaint made by @WingsScotland any further. 😮

Scotland absolutely is a CORRUPT country akin to a banana republic….. 😡
