Call to drop drink-drive SNP hopeful

The SNP is being urged to drop one of its General Election candidates after he was caught drink-driving in the seat he hopes to represent.

Charles ‘Chic’ Brodie, the Nationalist hopeful in the Ayr, Carrick and Cumnock seat, admitted being over the limit late last year.

He was fined £230 and disqualified for 14 months.
