An SNP MP has said he is "confident" his party can win a crunch by-election if Margaret Ferrier is finally recalled by voters.
David Linden also claimed he did not recognise reports that some in the SNP Westminster group feel the party lacks a clear offer to the electorate.
Ferrier, a former SNP MP who now sits as an independent, lost her appeal against a 30-day suspension from the Commons for her Covid rule-breaking.
