Independent MP faces demand for apology and donation after false tweets
Reading time: 1 minute
Independent MP Natalie McGarry has been asked to apologise and make a charitable donation after falsely accusing the leader of a political campaign of being a Holocaust denier.
A spokesperson for the Scotland in Union group said it wanted Ms McGarry to issue a “suitable apology” after tweets she made on Sunday morning about campaign leader Alastair Cameron.
One of Ms McGarry’s tweets, later deleted, read: “Leading unionist figures do know that Scotland in the Union is headed by an internet troll and an ousted holocaust denier, right?”
A spokesperson for Scotland in the Union said: “We are surprised that an elected member of parliament would make such a false and offensive accusation.”
He added: “We can confirm that Alastair Cameron has instructed a legal firm to engage Ms McGarry and seek an appropriate apology and a charitable donation.”
