Alex Salmond tells MSPs of a 'malicious plan' against him - BBC News
Scotland's former leader explains why there was an attempt to remove him from public life, and why he is in "no doubt" Nicola Sturgeon broke the ministerial code.
The last six hours have been detailed. Alex Salmond’s complaints are numerous.

But stand back from it for a second.

The former first minister of Scotland has just accused his successor of breaking the ministerial code – and left open the door for her having to resign as a result.

He has said Scotland’s most senior civil servant should quit – and that its most senior lawyer should consider his position.

Nicola Sturgeon’s allies will argue he has not provided evidence for his claims of a plot against him.

But Ms Sturgeon will face huge questions when she appears before MSPs next week – some of the most difficult she has faced in her career.
