SNP MP proven wrong after accusing Scotland Office of breaking purdah rules

A leaked letter, obtained by the Herald, shows the UK Government department has confirmed to the Scottish Affairs committee that it spent nothing on social media adverts during the period of purdah, despite being accused of doing so by the SNP s Deidre Brock.
Ms Brock, MP for Edinburgh North and Leith, asked the Scottish Secretary Alister Jack earlier this month why his office had advertised on Twitter, against election rules.
