Nicola Sturgeon didn't know her husband stole £400,000

[Imdunfer]

Really? She lived with this guy and didn't know? She had a camper van parked on the drive and didn't know he stole the money to buy it?

I don't buy it.

AIBU

The police statement said 2010-2022

The sole focus being on what NS knew or didn’t is covering the questions surrounding long periods of time where we have no idea what happened.

We know part of the finance and audit committee, and the professional auditors, quit after the journalist raised questions, but what about the 10ish years before that?

The whole affair sounds corrupt. What about the auditors. They resigned in 2023 I think. And didn't NS say at some meeting nobody is to ask any questions about finances. Why not? Can't believe she has got away with it. But I reckon the powers that be don't want the whole thing exposed because it would probably mean the end of the SNP.

Actual footage of their living room:

Three members of the SNP finance and audit committee resigned in protest because they were refused access to the books. Sturgeon told the leadership committee to stop asking questions about the finances. (2023)

Of course she didn’t. No one ever questioned where their spouse’s sudden wealth appeared from. 🙄

Surely that is a matter for the police to investigate, not for public opinion to decide that she is guilty...

There are women who lived alongside men who were up to no good (from cheats to serial killers) and had no idea of what they were up to so I reserve judgement until I see evidence.

If she was an accomplice then of course she should face justice.

AH THOUGHT IT WIS AW ON THE NEVER NEVER

Apparently when she was interviewed by the police she turned her chair round so she was facing the wall and had her back to the officers and sat in silence.

I’m surprised she hasn’t blamed it on Westminster yet

QUITE RIGHT ITS BIN NEARLY 24 HOURS SINCE MA HSABND GOT THE JAIL YOUS SHOULD ALL MOVE ON

I have been saying since she first came on to the scene that she was corrupt but no one believed me. So pleased I don’t live in Scotland now with the SNP. They are not to be trusted

He went to WH Smith’s instead of the works.

What a shame, such a betrayal of the Scottish people. Imagine if you'd donated to the Party, only to think Murrell spent it on a coffee machine or fountain pen.

Oh aye?

Ian Murray is a Labour MP in Edinburgh, with a good reputation, no connection with SNP

You were misinformed

Two Advent Calendars for £400?
I really want to know what was behind those windows.

Convient they wait till after the referendum to convict him. And the SNP still voted in it’s unbelievable. They impose the highest tax in uk saying higher earners won’t even notice the extra hundreds in tax a month! While SNP leaders stealing money for lavish lifestyle it’s unbelievable.

Also 2million tax payers money wasted to investigate, then he pleads guilty Nicola gets off!

JIST DINNAE ASK ABOOT THE GAME BOYS

The majority don't. Most vote for opposition parties, but it's split between them and the SNP wins because of that.

I bet he was up gaming til all hours.

'buying two of its Feasting Advent calendars for £400 and a Musical Santa’s Sleigh Advent calendar at £165'

Greedy sod! No doubt one of them was in the house which he shared with Nicola Sturgeon.

Imagine them stuffing themselves chuckling about the fools that donated money.

Dislike “ Wee Nippy “ but she’s a perfectly intelligent woman .
there is no way she didn’t know about this .

Yes it's quite bizarre isn't it especially all the instant coffee and gaming paraphernalia. I imagine these small items were chosen because he didn't think anyone would question it (new pen, bulk buy coffee). He could have told her he treated himself to the campervan out of his own savings. For her, it could have been a gradual realisation rather than her being in on it all along. Obviously she came to find out hense her stepping down and distancing herself from him immediately before all this went public. How embarrassing for her and what a massive bettayal if she had nothing to do with it.

So many people enter Politics with modest savings and lifestyles yet within years are extremely wealthy.

But the Police cleared Sturgeon and the SNPs treasurer, so if Sturgeon is guilty and its so obvious, then the only conclusion is the Police are corrupt too, along with the entire justice system as the verdict given AFTER elections
