SNP under fire for spending just £90k on Remain campaign
The figure, which has been released by the Electoral Commission, was criticised by the SNP’s opponents.
Conservative MSP Murdo Fraser said: “The SNP is behaving like leaving the EU is the end of the world for Scotland. But the party’s pitiful investment in the campaign tells another story completely.

SNP MSP Bill Kidd said that his party had run a “strong, positive and effective campaign”, which helped secure a 62 per cent Remain vote north of the Border.
