The Electoral Commission exists.

I fear Scotland’s sidelining in this Brexit documentary part 1 reflects the harsh truth that despite repeated SNP election wins the ScotGov gained nothing for Scotland from their strategy & thus rendered themselves & our country irrelevant to this history https://t.co/D2ZtMXPaOO

UK is going down a very dangerous path on mass surveillance and censorship.

The government is literally demanding that every device sold or used in the country scans all content for “illegal” material. Signal is right to push back hard, this isn’t protection, it’s the end of private communication as we know it.

[Signal @signalapp]

Our statement on the UK government’s demand that all content on all devices sold or used in the country be scanned, on the presumption of nudity, using a dystopian combination of age verification and content scanning. This proposal will not safeguard children. It endangers us all.

🚨 The Court of Session hearing date for the James Hamilton evidence, in which the SG is claiming that the SIC is ordering it to disclose information which it says is contempt of court will be heard on the 22nd of September. This is the FOI request which I requested back in 2021.

Fucking hell. I thought the line was that you already had.

[Friends Of Wings @FOWingsScot]

@joannaccherry We’re witnessing a very peculiar moment in SNP history now, where supporters are disappearing in the hope no-one remembers their fanaticism and high profile figures are trying to rewrite their positions from being Sturgeonite attack dogs to concerned commentators. It won’t wash.

[Joanna Cherry KC @joannaccherry]

What a pity she didn’t have the courage to speak out at the time. But then of course there would have been consequences as those of us who did are only too well aware.

🔥 @theSNP’s “opaque” NEC was “the perfect breeding ground” for Peter Murrell’s embezzlement, the party’s former Deputy Leader at Westminster said.

@MhairiBlack also called @JohnSwinney “disingenuous” for claiming Referendum Appeal donations could prop up SNP funds

[Morgwn Davies @MorgwnD]

@WingsScotland Was it based at Bristol Filton Airport?

Or another airfield?

[Morgwn Davies @MorgwnD]

The Electoral Commission are toothless when it comes to enforcement and ensuring that the law and electoral rules are followed.

They have no enforcement powers on whole areas of the Regulations on Campaigning, the police have some but by the time the police will act the election will have happened.

No one is going to look back at a referendum nearly 12 years ago, nevermind take any action.

Elections in the UK are not a level playing field and favour massively the established parties, Labour, Tories and Liberal Democrats. And now possibly the Green parties.

Everyone else is on the back foot from the start. Especially independent candidates.

Nicola Sturgeon will be allowed to keep goods bought with stolen SNP funds – including expensive household appliances and apparent gifts – because prosecutors quietly deleted them from Peter Murrell’s indictment in a plea deal.

Scots law specialists say hundreds of items worth almost £60,000 that were stripped out before he admitted embezzling £400,310.65 are now effectively beyond confiscation unless the SNP sues her itself.

Think about that: a party chief embezzles nearly half a million pounds, splurges it on everything from a £124,000 motorhome to a £3,200 coffee machine, a robotic lawnmower, designer salt and pepper grinders and “gifts” for his wife – and the system decides that as long as the indictment is massaged down, the goodies can stay where they are.

In any normal organisation, that would be called proceeds of crime; in SNP‑land, it’s just another “private matter” between the former leader and her estranged husband.

[Walter White @WalterWhite444]

Peter Murrell is reported to have sold his Portuguese villa for £400,000 after he was granted legal aid for his embezzlement court case. This is yet another unacceptable strand to this enormous SNP scandal.

[Wings Over Scotland @WingsScotland]

Peter Murrell’s stolen gifts for Nicola Sturgeon ‘cannot be seized’

EXCLUSIVE: I was branded CRANK when I flagged SNP missing cash – now I’ve been vindicated after Peter Murrell was jailed https://t.co/Whs0INgnBU

[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.

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

I have subsequently been informed by a very reliable and well-placed source* that COPFS is in fact NOT even answerable to the King.

*my source is not the King
