Episode Details

Former SNP Council Leader Convicted of Sexual Misconduct: A Thirty-Year-Old from Belshill, Jordan Linden, was found guilty on five charges at Falkirk Sheriff Court this week. The offenses spanned a decade from 2011 to 2021, with many incidents occurring while Linden held influential roles, including chair of the Scottish Youth Parliament and involvement with SNP youth and LGBT groups. He became a councilor and council leader in 2022 but stepped down weeks later when allegations surfaced. Linden was acquitted on some charges but placed on the sex offenders register and released on bail ahead of sentencing next month. The SNP and Scottish Youth Parliament condemned the actions as reprehensible, offering support to victims and awaiting full details post-sentencing.
