HYPOCRISY

This is a good case in which the deliberately exaggerated 'once in a lifetime' myth (by Tories and others) might be justified sending a few of our MPs to cheer Scotland's matches. After all, Salmond made sure he was present when Andy Murray won Wimbledon - and guess what, you sons-of-bitches vilified him even then!

"John Swinney has sent four SNP ministers on a taxpayer-funded World Cup trip while Parliament is still sitting. That’s staggering hypocrisy from a First Minister who previously attacked MSPs for spending their own money to support their teams during sitting days. One rule for the SNP, another for everyone else." Tory Jock Branch

@TheParty1sOver 😢😢

@grazzar09 Hope you had a lovely birthday and your health improves 🙏 SNP have betrayed us all and hope is a broken thread (if at all) I hope to see justice for Alex Salmond at least 🙏

@IndyLassie @TheParty1sOver @AlisonM39525362 Is this fact?

I can’t say it any more plainly.

Independence supporters have been lied to.

Independence supporters have been fleeced.

There is no plan, secret or otherwise.

Those raising the alarm were monstered, blamed and vilified.

You’re flogging a dead horse.

[Neale Hanvey🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @JNHanvey]

Now we know why they were hell bent on stopping Alex. He would’ve initiated an immediate investigation into the finances. This I state with absolute confidence.

[Murdo Fraser MSP @murdo_fraser]

This is what @JohnSwinney said to me & Dean Lockhart in 2022 when we went to Seville for the Europa League final. I’m sure as a man of integrity he’s not a shameless hypocrite so there is a credible explanation for this latest development?

[Wilderness of Peace @WildernessPeace]

Peter Murrell: pleads guilty to embezzlement, gets legal aid & the opportunity to pay his loot back.

Alex Salmond: found innocent, paid his own fees, died near impoverished.

This is why we *cannot* let this go. The soul of our nation is at stake. They *must not win.*

[Neale Hanvey🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @JNHanvey]

@meljomur Same old tribal BS that will get the movement absolutely nowhere.

FWIW, we were the victims of an alleged fraud. ✅

We didn’t raise £600k for one purpose & spend it elsewhere.

Alex personally commissioned the audit, I led it, we then reported the findings to the police.

[Wings Over Scotland @WingsScotland]

Wings Over Scotland has today filed a new complaint with Police Scotland and COPFS against the SNP, on grounds of suspected fraud, theft by appropriation, embezzlement and false or misleading statements, based on new evidence POST-Operation Branchform. https://t.co/orUI13zN5g

[Mel 🕊️ @meljomur]

@SuzJamieson The mind boggles how strong pro-independence voices who so many of us once admired (see also Lesley Riddoch) are willing to completely destroy their own credibility and reputation. Just to defend an SNP riddled with corruption and incompetence.

[Joanna Cherry KC @joannaccherry]

This was certainly not my experience or indeed that of others when we asked legitimate questions about the governance of the Party and its financial affairs and I would be happy to give evidence on oath to this effect.

[Mel 🕊️ @meljomur]

Absolutely 💯 this!

[Joanna Cherry KC @joannaccherry]

An excellent summary of the grassroots rebellion that took place in the SNP in 2020 & how it was ruthlessly crushed by the very people who are now claiming to have no idea that anything was wrong with SNP finances. In a healthy democracy their behaviour should have consequences.

[Lloyd Quinan @QuinanLloyd]

This a new political game called “Shameless”

[Lloyd Quinan @QuinanLloyd]

Never forget never forgive.

[Rab @Rab_Dickson1]

As Wings has said, this is an admission of an illegal act.
We gave that money for one thing... running the SNP was NOT that thing.

[Jeannie McCrimmon @IndyLassie]

@WingsScotland @SatyagrahAlba A hundred years from now, Sturgeon will be viewed as a traitor, and those surrounding her as selfish cowards.
