POLL: Should Nicola Sturgeon be suspended from the SNP? | Politics | News [Video]

Sources have claimed that Ms Sturegon tried to prevent the National Executive Committee (NEC) from asking questions about more than £600,000 which went missing from party accounts.

She reportedly told a recorded meeting of the NEC in August 2021, a month after police launched an investigation: “We don’t need to talk about the finances. The finances are absolutely fine.”

One source told the Sunday Mail that Ms Sturgeon said that “there was nothing wrong with the accounts and that people should stop talking about it because it was undermining the part”.

They claimed: “It’s fair to say she was pretty raging about it. She went on at some length telling everyone that everything was absolutely fine and that it shouldn’t be discussed.”
