Former Scottish Secretary, MP Alistair Carmichael, is now facing a legal challenge to overturn his election victory in Orkney and Shetland. The recently elected MP is being ridiculed for his alleged role in the leaking of a memo wrongly suggesting that Nicola Sturgeon wanted David Cameron to be Prime Minister.
The challenge is launched at the Court of Session in Edinburgh after more than £40,000 was raised online to fund legal representation. Whereas in response to the challenge, Mr. Carmichael stated that he refuses to step down despite the revelation that he approved the leak of the memo. One of the organizers responsible for raising the legal fund, Fiona McInnes, explained that “there is a large groundswell of opinion now forming that Alistair Carmichael should step down and allow the people of Orkney and Shetland to make the choice about whether they wish to place their trust in him again or not.” It was added that “it is really constituents from Orkney and Shetland asking the courts, or the law of the land, to examine the electoral process in Orkney and Shetland over the election period – and to see whether it was run properly and fairly.”
An inquiry set up by Cabinet Secretary, Sir Jeremy Heywood, looked into the leaked memo claiming that Ms. Sturgeon told French ambassador Sylvie Bermann that she would prefer to see Conservatives remain in power. It concluded that Mr. Carmichael “could and should have stopped the sharing of the memo”.
