Looking forward to Sturgeon's defence that she didn't know what had been happening in her own house because she was never there..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a coincedence this comes shortly after her wee pal Livingstone announced he was leaving his post as Chief of Police Scotland? Can't see him signing off on something like this. Don’t see them finding the missing £600k in the house tbh. That will be ‘resting’ in an offshore bank account somewhere. I thought it was the source of money that was the issue, not its destination. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it's obviously just a bird hide that he's built himself so he can observe more magpies in the neighbourhood no? Last time I recall seeing a tent in a back garden, Peter Tobin was being investigated. Just saying. “Where are the bodies, Peter!?” Maybe the police just do this when a Peter is involved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about £600,000 raised for independence campaigning, and the accounts showed the balance to be around £100,000 with no sign of where the 600k went 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not necessarily why he's been arrested. The accounts for 2017 show much higher dontations than the previous year (by over £1m) so probably include the online donations. The excess was clearly used to repay Colin Weir's £1/2m. I don't think there's money missing. Could be wrong though. It's a legitimate query as to whether there was any fraud in the claim that it was ringfenced (seems possible buy not hugely likely). I suspect that checking one allegation probably uncovered something else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lambies Doos Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Sooner Slab back independence the better. SNP are a victim of their own success.

Approximately yes. 12 hours max then charged or released unless a senior officer authorises a further 12 hours (which they likely will) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
