In one account often repeated on the internet, users say she engaged in an
extra-marital relationship with a female French diplomat.

Some of the rumours allege the pair bought tennis legend Judy Murray's old
house in Bridge of Allan to use as a secret love nest.

Why does it matter what her sexuality is?

She's no longer in office so why would her private life be any of anyone else's business?

The "secret property portfolio" sure.

Thumbs down

typical SNP extremist

SNP politician had innocent woman investigated for hate crime over bikini wax
mix-up


nasty


A nationalist MSP caused an innocent woman to be investigated for a hate crime after she wrongly claimed opponents
of Nicola Sturgeon’s gender self-ID laws had booked her a “malicious” bikini wax.

Karen Adam, who represents Banffshire and Buchan Coast for the SNP, complained in December that she had been a
victim of abuse and intimidation after she received an unsolicited confirmation for an intimate salon appointment.

She publicly blamed critics of self-ID laws for making a booking “focused on my genitals” at the same time that a
crunch Holyrood debate on the controversial gender laws was due to take place.

However, the Telegraph understands that it took a police probe to find out that the incident was the result of an
innocent mix-up at the Edinburgh salon.


A woman with a very similar name to Ms Adam had tried to make a genuine appointment and the MSP got the
confirmation email, in what police sources confirmed was an “administrative error”.

Critics of Ms Adam said her reaction to receiving the email, which she also wrote about at length in a national
newspaper column, exposed her “absurd persecution complex” and raised doubts over whether she was clever enough
to be an MSP.

Default Humza Yousaf faces Unionist ‘pincer movement’ at election time


Conservative strategists plan to hand Labour a free run at reclaiming its former
urban strongholds while they target rural constituencies




Humza Yousaf faces a Unionist pincer movement at the next general election,
under Scottish Tory plans to relentlessly target rural voters while handing
Labour a free run at reclaiming its former urban strongholds.

“We think it’s wrong to say that only Labour will benefit from the turmoil in
the SNP,” a Tory source said. “We’re going to hammer the point that we are
the only party that understands rural Scotland and will defend it.

“Seats changing hands between the SNP and Labour in the central belt
doesn’t really concern as, as neither will back a Tory prime minister.

“We’re not going to bust a gut in places we have no chance. Our resources
will be targeted at seats we know we can win.”

A series of Scottish Government policies backed by the Greens, such as new
marine protection areas which will effectively ban fishing, are set to be
relentlessly attacked by the Tories.

Rachael Hamilton, rural affairs spokesman for the Scottish Tories, said: “The
fact that the rural affairs brief was used as a political ploy to force Kate
Forbes to the backbenches tells you all that you need to know about Humza
Yousaf’s interest in rural Scotland.

Encourage unionists to vote Labour

There were reports on Monday that the Tories would encourage Unionist
voters to back Labour in some constituencies in a bid to “end nationalist
dominance”.

it's no small incident ......

There is currently police activity at the couple's home in Glasgow and at SNP headquarters in Edinburgh.

There are 10 uniformed officers stationed outside the former first minister's home, alongside one police vehicle and an incident tent in the front garden.

The curtains and blinds remained drawn and there was no sign of anyone in the property.

Meanwhile, two police officers were posted outside SNP HQ and there were other officers inside.

At least six marked police vehicles were parked outside the building.

An SNP spokesperson said: "Clearly it would not be appropriate to comment on any live police investigation but the SNP have been cooperating fully with this investigation and will continue to do so.

Questioning Humza Yousaf’s competence is ‘racist’, says SNP MSP





People who question the competence of Scotland’s new First Minister by
calling him “useless” are racists, an SNP MSP has claimed.

Karen Adam, who loudly backed Humza Yousaf’s successful bid to succeed
Nicola Sturgeon, said that he was already being targeted with “racist tropes”
that were “utterly disgusting”.

However, in her column in the pro-independence newspaper The National, MZ
Adam claimed that the new First Minister had been unfairly criticised since
he announced his leadership bid because of the colour of his skin.

Ms Adam went on to call on “white allies” to “call out” the attacks on Mr
Yousaf, claiming she feared the “misogyny Nicola endured” had “now flipped
to racism towards Humza”.

Opponents insisted that attacks on Mr Yousaf, who was born in Glasgow to
immigrants from Pakistan and Kenya, were based on his performance in
government roles. (YA THINK?)

SNP voters 'duped' into backing Humza Yousaf

First Minister election would have ended differently if people had known Peter
Murrell's arrest was imminent, argue Kate Forbes' backers

Cool

The arrest comes just weeks before Sir Iain Livingstone, the chief constable of
Police Scotland, is set to retire. Livingstone announced his decision to retire
just eight days after Ms Sturgeon’s resignation
