And she said at the time that the two events weren't related.
There was a lot of skepticism about that, but that was her position.
But I was really fascinated as well when she was talking about when she first confronted him.
And had she ever confronted him?
Had he ever given her an explanation?
And the first thing she remembers doing and confronting him is when the motorhome was reported, this notorious motorhome worth more than 100 grand that was parked in her mother-in-law's drive.
Although she explained really for the first time in detail that actually it was parked...
slightly round the corner, so she didn't notice it.
People will make their own judgment when they watch the interview in full or when they listen to it or when they watch the clips.
But the motorhome has taken on, I think, the same sort of status as, you know, Boris Johnson's wallpaper, hasn't it?
You know, the motorhome, subject of memes, subject of people sort of poking fun at it.
But this isn't funny.
You know, this was hundreds of thousands of pounds.
And there's an unresolved question, too, about whether or not, not in this case, but whether or not Peter Murrell was using taxpayers' money, too, as part of his spending.
We don't really know about that, but there are questions being asked about taxpayers' money because, fun fact, political parties are given a certain amount of money, short money as it's known.
dependent on how big they are, theoretically, because political parties should have some cash for the public good so they can exist and work on policy and, you know, help the sort of democratic system.
But if there is to be a Westminster inquiry or a Scottish Parliament inquiry, that I think would be one of the areas that they will go after.
get it done in Holyrood and have more control over who appears and what happens we will see but I think either way I think there is probably going to be some form of inquiry whether it's in the Scottish Parliament or in the Houses of Parliament in Westminster or maybe even in both who knows all sorts of fun
I think that's really interesting, yeah.
