Margaret Ferrier has been urged to resign now rather than wait to be recalled by her constituents.
No date has yet been set for MPs to vote on whether the recommended 30-day ban be imposed on Ferrier. They are expected to overwhelmingly back the suspension.
He said he was confident that the threshold for removing Ferrier as an MP would be met and urged her to put her constituents first by resigning now.He added: "Every step of the way, this individual is trying to keep her job rather than actually standing up for the community that needs proper support".
Ms Ferrier's former colleagues in the SNP - including then-party leader Nicola Sturgeon - have consistently called for her to quit since her Covid breach came to light. programme that her position was "untenable" and that he was confident the SNP would win a by-election. He added: "Instead, it looks like she will brazenly continue to take her MP salary until the bitter end."The Commons' standards committee recommended in March that Ferrier should be suspended, with a independent expert panel upholding the original judgement on Monday after she appealed against it.
"She acted selfishly, putting her own interests above the public interest. There could therefore be no lesser sanction for this conduct."
