The revolt against new Westminster SNP leader Stephen Flynn is continuing after MP Chris Law became the third frontbencher to stand down in the wake of his election.
Law, the MP for Dundee West, announced that he was quitting as the SNP's spokesperson for international development on Thursday night, two days after Flynn was elected Westminster leader, replacing Ian Blackford. He stressed that Flynn had his "full support" in his letter to the new group leader, published on Twitter shortly before 10pm.
He wrote: "Serving in this role has truly been an honour and it is a role that I have thoroughly relished working in. Polling released this week has been truly heartening and I truly believe that we have never been closer to independence.
