In The Room: MPs salaries have resulted in ‘soft and hidden corruption’
Peter Murrell, the former SNP chief executive, has admitted to embezzling more than £400,000 from his party, with the money spent on luxury goods, cars and even a motorhome. In a dramatic fall from grace, Murrell, the estranged husband of former first minister Nicola Sturgeon, was charged on Monday after pleading guilty to embezzlement charges carried out between August 2010 and October 2022. In this clip from the latest episode of In The Room, Helen MacNamara and Cleo Watson discuss whether actually giving MPs a pay rise would stop “soft and hidden corruption” from brewing. New episodes of In The Room drop every week. You can listen on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or watch on YouTube.
