SNP leadership candidate Ash Regan reveals she could readmit Alex Salmond into the party if she wins
But, asked by whether she would readmit him to the SNP, Ms Regan said: “Political parties want to have as many members as possible. If people want to join the SNP, they are free to do that.”
Ms Regan’s campaign team inclu-des Kirk Torrance, a former SNP digital supremo who was a defence witness at Mr Salmond’s trial.Asked about his involvement, Ms Regan said: “Kirk is a professional consultant, he worked internationally and did strategy for three major UK parties, most notably the SNP. And she claimed she has received messages and calls from people who have said they would return if she is elected leader.
It has emerged he may have consulted the Muslim community before claiming he had an “unavoidable” meeting in with Pakistan’s Consul General to discuss a Scot facing execution.He alleged “Humza deliberately skipped the vote” after he may have been “put under pressure by mosque leaders of the mosque in Glasgow”.
