Mackay must go

-

I was horrified to read that Derek Mackay, the disgraced SNP MSP who resigned from his post way back in February, has not been in the Scottish Parliament since then (your report, yesterday). Anyone found to have behaved in the way he has admitted he did who ceases to fulfil his duties has absolutely no right to remain an MSP when he is not representi­ng his constituen­ts. His party should be demanding he resign his seat and allow voters in his constituen­cy to have representa­tion at Holyrood. He should also be forced to repay all money he has been paid since he was last at Holyrood.

This reflects very badly on the SNP and those who police the conduct of those who (supposedly) represent us.
