Blackford: Flynn gave me ‘categoric’ assurance that SNP auditors were in place

PA Wire

Ian Blackford has said his successor as the SNP’s Westminster leader, Stephen Flynn, gave him a “categoric” assurance that auditors for their group were in place.

However, Mr Flynn has denied this is the case, saying work to find new auditors for the SNP group is continuing and such a categoric assurance is not possible.
