NEW: Ash Regan MSP says Peter Murrell should step down as SNP Chief Executive She believes there’s a conflict of interest On continuing the partnership with the Greens - the SNP leadership hopeful says “I’m not going to make any decision about that right now”

@KizzieWiz @AshReganSNP She is absolutely right. The unelected Murrell is desperate to keep all the skeletons in the closet.

@AshReganSNP It does and always has stunk of corruption. What other political party has a husbsnd and wife as leader and CEO? Plus the pair of them are under investigation by police Scotland.

@AshReganSNP Spot on @AshReganSNP Independence front and centre. Great to hear the party’s original values seeing the light of day after 8 dark years!

@AshReganSNP “I haven’t made a decision about that yet.” Regan seems to think she’s already FM. I’m deducting a certain arrogance here I dislike.

@AshReganSNP If she is talking of conflicts of interest, surely her cosying up to the Alba party, which appears to exist to bring the SNP down, is a conflict in itself. If Regan is elected, she won't need to make a decision on the Green/SNP arrangement, I'm pretty sure the Greens would walk

@AshReganSNP Does she not have any policies other than Alba stuff?

@AshReganSNP And she is spot on Murrell has to resign immediately, he should have done so when Nicola became first Minister.

@WingsScotland @AshReganSNP There *is* a conflict of interest,and it's one that has kept Sturgeon and her cabal in power for years.

@AshReganSNP He's also been in the position far far too long. And there is the police investigation. A moral person would stand aside until it is concluded.
