Scottish Conservative leader Douglas Ross faces accusations of misusing parliamentary travel expenses, allegedly combining them with his work as a football referee. Reports claim Ross's advisers raised concerns over 28 travel claims, including a £58 parking fee at Inverness Airport, while Parliament was in recess. Ross insists he has only submitted expenses for his role as MP, but Deputy First Minister John Swinney called the alleged misuse of public funds "very serious" and demanded detailed clarification from Ross.
