Questioned on speculation the SNP could be bankrupt, Yousaf said it is 'solvent' and bankruptcy had not been discussed at the National Executive Council (NEC)
Humza Yousaf has denied the SNP faces bankruptcy as he confirmed forensic auditors could be appointed following a meeting of the party's ruling body.
He said: "We're not close to bankruptcy. This is something I've read in some social media circles but, no, the party is solvent." He said an interim report on the review is expected in June, with a full report due in autumn and the latter will be made public. Top news stories today Mr Yousaf was speaking at a campaign event in the Rutherglen and Hamilton West constituency, where the party could face a by-election.
Parliament is still to determine her punishment, but the Commons Standards Committee has already recommended the MP - who now sits as an independent - should be suspended for 30 days.He said: "I think it will be a challenging by-election for us. I'm not going to pretend otherwise in the context of Margaret's actions, plus also last week has been difficult.
