A millionaire businessman and rock drummer has taken up Alex Salmond’s case against the Scottish Government after being assigned the legal rights.
Paul McManus will fund the action initially brought by the former first minister before his death, which accused senior Government figures, including his protegee Nicola Sturgeon and former top civil servant Leslie Evans, of “misfeasance” in relation to complaints made against him by two civil servants during his time in Bute House.
