Nicola Sturgeon says she feels like a “mug” over Peter Murrell and that she will not visit him while he is in prison, according to reports.

The comments relate to Murrell’s incarceration and the fallout within the Scottish National Party (SNP) surrounding the circumstances that led to his jail term. Outlets report that Sturgeon’s remarks reflect her personal reaction to what she characterizes as events involving Murrell, rather than a broader change in her political stance.

Across the coverage provided, the core points are consistent: Sturgeon addresses her relationship to Murrell’s case in strongly worded terms and states she does not plan to go to the prison to see him. The outlets differ mainly in emphasis and phrasing, but they all describe the same decision and sentiment, with no additional new details about the prison or specific legal timeline included in the material supplied.
