Jack Ross, the former Conservative candidate suspended after undercover filming appeared to show him discussing contract killers, worked as a social media consultant in Kemi Badenoch's office last year, the Guardian reports. Ross, chief executive of Turning Point UK, denies the allegations and says his remarks were never meant seriously. Police Scotland says it is now reviewing the Al Jazeera documentary for any possible criminality.
