A £1,200 space telescope, a designer bread bin costing £60 and two toilet seats for nearly £70 are some of the items Peter Murrell bought using money he embezzled from the SNP.
He also bought three designer manicure sets for nearly £294, DVDs of the Danish political thriller Borgen, a Grand Theft Auto V video game and a designer egg poacher set for nearly £24.
Also among his purchases were a Jura Giga 5 Cromo coffee machine for nearly £3,232 – and a book of speeches by his estranged wife, Nicola Sturgeon.
The former chief executive, who is Nicola Sturgeon’s estranged husband, was charged with embezzling the funds from the Scottish National Party between August 2010 and October 2022.
Murrell, 61, arrived at the High Court on Monday wearing a black suit with a black tie and sentencing is due to take place on June 23.
