A former Scots Tory MP who backs Donald Trump has appeared in Reform UK’s latest Scottish video. Ross Thomson can be seen chatting to Reform chair David Bull in the promo less than a year after backing Russell Findlay for the Conservative leadership in Scotland. A Tory source said he is no longer a member of their party. Thomson had been a Tory MSP and MP but he did not seek re-election in the Aberdeen South seat in 2019. He had been accused of sexual harassment in a House of Commons bar, but he was cleared. A cameo in a Reform UK video of Bull’s trip to Perth at the weekend has now fuelled speculation he could be the latest Tory to jump ship to Nigel Farage ’s right wing party. In the video, Bull said he was in Scotland because Reform is doing “so well” north of the border, before cutting to an image of him speaking to Thomson. In last year’s Scottish Tory leadership contest, Thomson vocally backed Findlay. He wrote on X: "After the hustings in Aberdeen, it’s clear that @RussellFindlay1 is the best candidate to lead the @ScotTories. He’ll champion our vital oil & gas sector and offer a real, common sense, conservative alternative to the socialist parties at Holyrood. He’s also a really nice guy!” Findlay responded with a grateful message that included a gold star. Thomson is fervently pro-Trump and dined with the President at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. It was reported in April that he had secured a new job with one of Trump ’s golf resorts. In 2018, he ran into controversy after reportedly posting himself sitting on the throne of Saddam Hussein . He was accused of “trivialising" the dictator’s bloody reign after writing: "Another terrific day in Iraq . "I was able to channel my inner dictator with a visit to Sadam's [sic] military parade ground The Swords of Qadisiyah (Victory Arch) and then sitting on Saddam 's throne at the British embassy." Thomson has been contacted. To sign up to the Daily R ecord Politics newsletter, click here
