Russell Findlay: “John Swinney’s confession that the SNP spent ‘ringfenced’ referendum money on other things is damning.”

This affluent crook, along with Scotland's wealthy organised criminals, shouldn't get a single penny of taxpayers' money to pay their lawyers.

John Swinney has a simple choice, either legitimise the Scottish Greens’ antisemitism by welcoming them to SNP conference or ditch them.

Swinney says he respects Scotland’s Jewish community. If so, then he won’t give his Green friends a platform.

But Scotland's benefits system under the SNP is broken. Around one pound of every seven spent by them goes on benefits.
