Just read this in the DM. I'm a bit shocked tbh. It's a lot of money. I wonder what he spent it on. There was a camper van mentioned ages ago but they don't cost that much. Honestly these folk.

In fairness, he got a decent trade-in on the Jag, so fair play to him for spending the SNP's money on something with residual value 😆

And with that in mind
Id take it with a pinch of salt wee krankie didn't know anything.

Salt and pepper comes out the same. Useless way of spending money. I’d definitely notice those and demand to know what they cost.

Here's a list.

£275 on chopsticks! £300+ on Cappuccino cups!

Thanks @Lalgarh. I don’t understand why the list features several identical things - for example, 4 coffee machines - when one should be enough.

One can’t get by without more than one coffee machine. 🙄🤔

Bizarre to go down for chopsticks etc

Such an odd need for theft to cover random items.

One for Bute House, one for NS's place, one for Murrell's, one for the campervan?

You monsters! This is at least the 4th statement she's had to put out this week denying everything and she says it's been the worst week of her life.
