The SNP needs to “reflect” on the contrasting ways it handles claims of sexual misconduct by senior party figures, a leading MP and critic of Nicola Sturgeon has said.
Joanna Cherry has reignited the row over fellow MP Patrick Grady’s short suspension from the SNP Westminster group after a secret recording of a meeting at which Nationalists expressed support for their embattled colleague was leaked.
Grady was suspended from the Commons for two days last week and made a public apology after a complaint of sexual harassment by a young SNP staffer was upheld.
