#swinney — Public Fediverse posts

So a total of £1,0060,000 has gone missing from SNP accounts?

£400k by Murrell and £660k supposedly for a referendum, but spent on other stuff...

Ex-MP #JoannaCherry is a v sore loser.

She has left the #SNP, and has a lucrative career as a KC, but 2 years after Parliament she still seems to put a lot of energy spraying venom on her former colleagues in the SNP, esp #Sturgeon & #Swinney.

This is a consistent pattern in Cherry's politics: all angry negative. Bitter about Brexit, bitter about SNP, bitter about #trans people.

@drgeraint this is true. But they won't get an #IndyRef2 that way. The reason I think the SNP *should* bring #ScottishLabour into government is that by throwing a few plums to them in terms of ministerial jobs they could get serious pressure applied to #Westminster to get the referendum agreed.

Mind you, I suspect #Swinney doesn't really want another indyref anyway, and that that is what was behind the stupid 'only SNP votes count' nonsense.
