As if a 9 week parliamentary summer recess wasn’t enough, the SNP give their Ministers even more time off.

The gravy train just keeps on running….

The decision by Scotland’s former first minister to appoint Anwar, 58, to represent her — after Peter Murrell, her estranged husband, admitted embezzling more than £400,000 — has been met with bewilderment and disbelief within the SNP.

I wonder how many “tainted” gifts Sturgeon and her family have?

[Joanna Cherry KC @joannaccherry]

Allegations of cash for seats coming on top of serious questions for the Crown & the Police make it increasingly likely there will be a Westminster inquiry. Scottish public life will be fixed from above unless the Scottish Government has the guts to set up an independent inquiry.

[Stephen Kerr MSP @RealStephenKerr]

Having stolen from SNP donors, and it seems the public purse, Peter Murrell is now fleecing the taxpayer for his legal costs.

This absolutely stinks and undermines public confidence in Scotland’s legal aid system.

The idea that someone whose assets include a holiday home should be eligible for legal aid makes an absolute mockery of our justice system.

From "We're married and will be for a long time" to "I won't visit Peter in Jail".

Sturgeon has more faces than the town clock.

⚠️Numbered accounts
⚠️No independent scrutiny
⚠️Questions redirected to Murrell
⚠️Blind deference from those meant to provide oversight

The SNP wasn't the victim of one man's actions.

It was the victim of a culture that treated accountability as the enemy.

Today's Sunday Times: SNP crime should not pay👇

Is weak Swinney okay with Sturgeon keeping her haul of stolen goods?

Great front cover of The Week magazine.

[Stephen Kerr MSP @RealStephenKerr]

The SNP isn’t merely capable of lying to the public — it has made deception a political strategy.

Alex Massie is right.

The Murrell scandal exposed a culture of secrecy and cover-up, yet John Swinney still refuses to acknowledge the scale of the wrongdoing.

Worse, SNP ministers too often resort to outright deception in the face of overwhelming evidence. That speaks volumes.

For too long, the SNP’s instinct has been denial, deflection and concealment rather than honesty and accountability. That is why public trust has been so badly damaged.

The embezzlement of £400K of SNP funds is the biggest political and financial scandal in the history of devolution — and it goes far beyond the crimes of Peter Murrell. There is a growing list of figures from whom those who blew the whistle want to hear.

[Agent P @AgentP22]

As the Peter Murrell fraud scandal grows arms and legs, 4 SNP ministers are flying out to the world cup to avoid further scrutiny.

Tomorrow's Sunday Mail leads on: A businessman boasted of giving Peter Murrell £50,000 to help a relative become an MP #tomorrowspaperstoday

[Agent P @AgentP22]

An SNP treasurer offering a £5,000 bounty to hunt down internal critics?

Sounds less like a political party and more like a mafia movie.

[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?

[Agent P @AgentP22]

The SNP establishment wants everyone to move on.

Donors who helped fund Murrell's £90-a-day lifestyle might have other ideas.
