[Scottish Labour MSP Colin Smyth has been arrested and charged over possession of indecent images. The 52-year-old, who has represented South Scotland since 2016, was arrested at a property in Dumfries earlier this month. Smyth has been suspended by Scottish Labour and is now listed as an independent on the parliament website. He is due to appear at Dumfries Sheriff Court at a later date. Smyth has held several frontbench roles, most recently in April 2023, and previously served as Scottish Labour's general secretary. His phone was answered but then died when BBC Scotland News tried to contact him. A Labour spokesperson said: "The whip has been removed from Colin Smyth MSP, pending an investigation. "We cannot comment further on this matter while the investigation is ongoing." It is understood the party suspended Smyth when it became aware of the police investigation.] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy08309kxw6o ![]() Last edited by arista; 20-08-2025 at 04:11 PM. |

He better not have done anything to the innocent bottle of Irn Bru.

Here's Labour MSP Colin Smyth, standing with a 16 foot transgender flag in 2019. He said it was a "privilege" to carry it at a 'trans rights' protest. He later voted for self ID in Scotland.
Today he was charged over the possession of indecent images of children https://x.com/ripx4nutmeg/status/195...H3mZnmkkQ&s=19 |
