## Resource

Peter Murrell, ex-CEO of the SNP and estranged husband of Nicola Sturgeon, has pleaded guilty to embezzling over £400,000 from the party—money he allegedly used to buy a motorhome and two cars. Arrested in April 2023 and formally charged last year, his guilty plea marks a major blow to the SNP’s reputation, especially as Sturgeon herself was cleared in a separate financial probe. The case, closely watched since her unexpected resignation, now moves forward with legal proceedings underway. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
