It would be very surprising if she didn’t discuss the party’s financial affairs with her husband.

So now we know why she resigned.

We don't though, do we?

Hang on, I'll get you your pitchfork and burning torch.

So now we know why she resigned. All the hero worship on here due to her stance on Covid, and now this - makes me laugh.

Me too maddyone... and resigned in such a hurry.

It was rather odd, when only a month or so earlier, after Jacinda Ardern's resignation, she had declared she still had "plenty in the tank".

Seriously, you think she didn't know what was going on?
It was all concealed from her?

I don’t know much about this but am convinced that this is why Nicola Sturgeon resigned.

I did wonder if she'd had death threats from online trolls as she looked very strained but this must be the reason.

She must feel very let down.

hidden money, brown envelopes. I suppose being arrested means that a full investigation can be carried out

The SNPs own audit committee resigned two years ago as they were not allowed to see the books.

It's been under investigation for ages. £600,000 missing.

I’m sure it was just a clerical error 🤔

It has.

BBC News - Sturgeon's husband arrested in SNP finance probe

I am sorry to read this as I had faith in the SNP. I hope that a police investigation into this matter will bring out the truth of the matter.
