Tory Scotland Secretary is ‘out of step with opinion in Scotland at every level,’ an SNP MP charges
Scottish Secretary David Mundell arrives in Downing Street, London, for a Cabinet meeting in November 2017

DAVID MUNDELL was facing fresh calls to resign today after he “staked his reputation” on PM Theresa May’s Brexit plan.

SNP MP Tommy Sheppard said the Tory Scotland Secretary was “out of step with opinion in Scotland at every level.”

It is just the latest bout of pressure to mount on Mr Mundell. In November, the Morning Star exclusively revealed that he had trousered almost £40,000 in donations from a Singapore-based businessman who hailed the last recession as a “massive wealth-building opportunity in disguise.”
