Scot Lib Dems respond to Ferrier appeal rejection

Responding to Parliament’s Independent Expert Panel rejecting Margaret Ferrier's appeal against her suspension for breaching Covid regulations, Scottish Liberal Democrat deputy leader Wendy Chamberlain MP said:

"At a time when so many Scots were staying home to keep themselves and others safe, Margaret Ferrier acted with real recklessness.

"Today's news takes us one step closer to a recall petition and a long overdue by-election.

“Rutherglen and Hamilton West deserve fresh representation and a chance to show the nationalists that they are fed up of being neglected."
