I am still not sure what they have done. Membership numbers how is that such a huge issue etc. There has to be more to this possibility of something criminal

Ignoring the theorising about exactly what when down with Salmond and the domestic arrangements of the Murrells, the key here is that there is an election on where one candidate who is distinctly useless, but also favoured by continuity sturgeon, was very much up against it. However no one was sure whether he had the numbers to win. Even the chief press officer was told the membership numbers were higher than they actually were.
So when the white smoke poured out of the chimney and it was announced that Useless had picked up 50k votes to Forbes 30k and Regan’s 15k with 5k spoiled who would have thought to question that?
Unless you imagine that come election day there would have been an announcement stating that Forbes won by 30k to useless’s 25k and Regan’s 15k and by the way SNP membership is down 30k.
There is more than a strong whiff that an election was being rigged with non existent members voting for the most useless candidate.
Of course that couldn’t be happening because Scotland isn’t a banana republic.
Yet.

What has been happening has been as plain as the nose on your face all along. Let’s see the defenders of the SNP on here now sticking up for their beloved party. If they are not hanging their head in shame then there is something seriously wrong. A slimeball of a party , corrupt to the core. All this waffle about independence for years based on inflated numbers of support much the same as actual party member numbers. The media in Scotland are also the lowest of the low, and all of these complicit entities including STV and BBC news also need to be called out for the never ending SNP propaganda and support.
Shocking that Scotland has hit rock bottom though is it not ?

Him misrepresenting member numbers to the press surely isn’t a resigning matter, there must be some other kind of fraud relating to it?

Guess it depends who the missing members "voted" for.

You've missed out:

"Someone" "allegedly" pursued a malicious prosecution against a political opponent in an attempt to jail them. Two journalists went to jail "allegedly" as part of the coverup.

Just to be clear, 45% of the electorate of Scotland are okay with that. Allegedly.
If you're referring to the 2014 45%, remember that was not 45% of the Scottish electorate as it is commonly understood by ordinary people, as it was inflated by schoolchildren and foreigners that won't be voting next time round.
Well it was a number selected to reflect the "alleged" SNP voters, who may or may not have ignored the "alleged" shenanigans and decided it best to "wheesht for Indy!" and ignore the "blatant MI5 Toarie smears". Afterall, the so-called "journalists" had it coming to them, even if one or more of them may have been pro-Indy.

But, "let me be clear on this", SNP voters look the other way regardless of the evidence <REDACTED> in front of them. No matter how much gagging of the press in Scotland, or flagrant collusion by them, it was crystal clear just by the result of the trial against Salmond that the fkers in charge were, and are, absolute corrupt scum. Yet SNP voters keep voting for them. "They're our scum" isn't reason enough.

Not for profit = nothing left in the end of year accounts
