Peter Murrell has now been exposed as a thief.
However, this SNP scandal exposes deep rot at the heart of the Scottish establishment and a chain of events that ultimately led to the untimely death of Alex Salmond.

NHS FRAUD CAUGHT ON CAMERA, NOBODY CARED
Sharmila Chowdhury @sharmilaxx gave the @NHS 30 years of clean service. Not one blemish. Then she did something apparently unforgivable. She noticed two consultant radiologists at Ealing Hospital, now part of London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust @LNWH_NHS, were billing the NHS for shifts they were actually spending at a private hospital down the road.
Getting paid twice for the same hours. That is fraud everywhere except, it turns out, inside the NHS complaints system.
She reported it. To her line manager. To the Medical Director. To the HR Director. To Counter Fraud. To the Chief Executive. To Number 10. To the Treasury. She built a paper trail so thorough that ITV @itvnews later sent an undercover team into the hospital and filmed the same consultants years on, still taking cash from patients for private ultrasounds inside NHS premises.
The Trust's response to all that diligence was to sack her, based on counter allegations later shown to be fabricated.
The man behind those allegations reportedly signed off an email too crude to print here ..........
....... He picked up a Top Mentor award from the Trust that same year. You could not write comedy this good on purpose.
Sharmila took it to tribunal and won. She won her appeal too. The judge told the Trust to reinstate her. The Trust said no. She was then quietly blacklisted across the NHS. One job offer was withdrawn the moment they worked out who she was. Legal costs hit £130,000.
Somewhere in the middle of it she developed breast and lung cancer, which her doctors link to years of sustained stress.
The two consultants kept their jobs. George Osborne could not get involved. Andrew Lansley could not get involved. David Cameron could not get involved. Every one of them filed it under employment matter, which is Whitehall for we would rather not know.
A proven fraud case, covered by ITV @itvnews, the Guardian, Daily Mail @DailyMail, Channel 4 News @Channel4News, the Independent @Independent, BBC News @BBCNews, the Times @thetimes and the Daily Mirror @DailyMirror. The official position of Her Majesty's Government was still not our problem.
This is the reward system in action. Report fraud, lose your career, lose your health, and watch the people you reported get promoted.

SHE FILMED THE TRUTH INSIDE BRITISH CLASSROOMS
In 2005 science teacher Alex Dolan strapped on a hidden camera and walked into 4 schools in Leeds and London.
What she filmed was not shocking to anyone who has ever set foot in a British secondary school. Pupils fighting on desks. Kids swearing in teachers faces.
Staff shuffling the worst behaved pupils out of the building the moment Ofsted @Ofstednews turned up to inspect.
@Channel4 aired the footage as Undercover Teacher, part of the Dispatches @C4Dispatches strand.
Leeds City Council went to the High Court to try to block it. A judge refused the injunction and ruled the programme served the public interest.
Watching a school fake its way through an inspection turns out to be exactly the kind of thing the public has an interest in.
So naturally the system did what it does best. It went after the person who filmed the problem instead of the problem itself.
The General Teaching Council spent 4 years building a case against Dolan. In March 2009 it found her guilty of unacceptable professional conduct for breaching the trust of the pupils she filmed.
Not the staff accused of hiding disruptive kids from inspectors. Not the school that burned through 26 supply teachers in a single year. Her.
She was suspended from teaching for 12 months.
Channel 4's own deputy head of news at the time said publicly it was wrong to punish a whistleblower for this kind of work and that the messenger should not be shot.
Press Gazette @pressgazette called the ruling a sad day for journalism. That was generous.
Dolan left teaching and became a weather presenter for BBC Look East, which is either the most British redemption arc going or proof that forecasting rain is safer than forecasting institutional failure.
No school she filmed faced a tribunal. No member of staff accused of gaming an Ofsted inspection faced a tribunal. The teacher who exposed it did.

Piddington is a village of 400 people and they are about to dump 1250 unaccompanied male migrants on them.
The last time Piddington was invaded by that many undocumented men in small boats it was the Normans and I think even they just sent a couple of tax collectors.
Two police officers will face a gross misconduct hearing over claims they failed to properly investigate the assault of a man which could be linked to the Huntingdon train stabbings. Read more: https://t.co/QWYBhs79yR
