This is bullshit. Benefit claimants are being required to pay back errors made years ago by the DWP when they have so little they need to claim benefits to survive. If she’s hidden or wasted the money she stole, they can garnish her future wages just like they do for poor people.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

She embezzled a further £4,661 while treasurer, secretary and convener of the Glasgow Regional Association of the SNP.

Prosecutors were aiming to recover embezzled funds at a proceeds of crime hearing at Glasgow Sheriff Court.

Allan MacLeod, defending, told Sheriff Barry Divers that an agreement with the Crown accountant had been reached.

“There is an agreed joint minute that you make a confiscation order for £66.36 and that will be paid to the sheriff’s clerk within one month of today.”

Fiscal depute Brian Duffy told the hearing that the £66.36 figure was “the only amount available to Miss McGarry towards the confiscation order.”

Earlier hearings were told the Crown had been looking into McGarry and her partner former Glasgow Tory leader David Meikle’s spending over the past 12 years.

The original article contains 337 words, the summary contains 129 words. Saved 62%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

So, go to her house, take the TV, furniture, everything. Until the money is repaid. If required take it from earnings, bank accounts, benefits etc. until debt is paid.
