| SNP Corruption 13:47 - May 25 with 9726 views | AnotherJohn | Peter Murrell has pleaded guilty to embezzling over £400K of Party funds between 2010 and 2022. He used the money to buy various luxury items, about which we are asked to believe his wife knew nothing. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news Swinney says the SNP are merely victims. Yet, he has known Murrell for over 30 years and indeed played a part in his appointment as Party Chief Executive. Swinney will have had an insider view of SNP governance during this period, as did Nicola Sturgeon. It is hard to believe there was just one rotten apple in the barrel. It looks like it isn't just the Welsh electorate that contains more than its fair share of sheepie. [Post edited 25 May 13:58]

| SNP Corruption on 13:59 - May 25 with 4753 views | raynor94 | For the life of me I can't understand how Sturgeon didn't realise what was going on, surely she would question her husband on where this money was coming from. I wonder if she took a trip in the brand new £120.000 mobile home |  |

Yup. Sturgeon comes across poorly regardless. Either she knew and is lying through her teeth, didn't know which makes her an idiot for not wondering where it was all coming from, or didn't care, which casts doubt on her judgement. |  |

People may remember that Madam Krankie did her best to shut down the original muttering about what had happened to Party funds raised to support a 2nd independence referendum. Some of the money was spent on jewellery and cosmetics. [Post edited 25 May 19:32]

Most married couples have a joint account so it’s pretty risible for her to even attempt to suggest she didn’t know. |  |

Even if they don't have a joint account, him rocking up with a £120k camper van or salt & pepper shakers worth about three grand would, you would think, have at least prompted questions. |  |

It seems the default position for politicians lately when caught with their pants down is to just claim they didn’t know because nobody told them. And they want us to trust them to run the country. |  |

Street smart? If the street is some quiet leafy little suburb in Edinburgh maybe. But I couldn’t see her surviving two seconds on most streets in any town where a vast chunk of the electorate live. |  |

Most people make big purchases with credit agreements so a big purchase would not necessarily mean a big recent cash advance from unknown sources. Her concerns would be more about taking on family debts. I am satisfied that the most recent Senedd was markedly more honest than Westminster. Boris or Drakeford. The mop haired bumbling buffoon Boris is far more likely to have fallen into crooked ways the Drakeford. Brits are easy meat for posh boy idiots. |  |

Peter Murrell has fiddled the books his wife obviously knew about it or she was completely thick. It has nothing to do with the Senedd unless you want to include Vaughan Gething who took illegal payments and was also crooked. |  | |  |

Just look at Farage. £5 miillion. Plus all the other hundreds of thousands. |  |

I also detest the notion of wealthy individuals and companies giving massive cash gifts to politicians and parties. It is basically a bribe. But surely you’d have to agree there’s a massive difference between being someone being gifted funds and another deliberately stealing funds? |  |
