The Nationalists have said that the Scottish Tory leader must 'answer questions' about MP expenses claims he made.

The SNP has called for Douglas Ross to make a personal statement to the Scottish Parliament about his expenses.

Expenses watchdogs were given the impression he was simply returning to his Moray constituency. They were all wrongly classed as “London-constituency” with the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority . "It's clear many in his own party think he should resign. On 4th July, people in Scotland can vote SNP to send Douglas Ross packing, get rid of the Tory government and put Scotland's interests first."

This was despite Ross previously announcing that he was standing down from Westminster because he wanted to focus on Holyrood. He said on a campaign visit to Paisley: “I think his ability to continue as Scottish Conservative leader is significantly undermined by his behaviour. "I haven't spoken to them about this but I know them well enough to know that they will be cringing."
