Le Creuset Mickey Mouse ramekins, a salt and pepper set for £702 and matching Montblanc fountain pens in white and yellow gold are among the items Peter Murrell bought with the money he embezzled from the Scottish National Party (SNP).

Murrell was sentenced to five years and three months in prison after admitting to illegally using £400,000 of party cash for personal purchases over a 12-year period.

The former SNP chief executive, and ex-husband of Nicola Sturgeon, used the party's funds to buy items ranging from the expensive to the mundane.

Here is a sample of the items Murrell spent his party's embezzled money on:
