Mark McDonald has revealed he is seeking professional help to change his behaviour after a sexual harassment complaint led to him quitting the Scottish Government.
Writing exclusively for the Press and Journal today, the former childcare minister admitted causing “considerable distress and upset” to a woman who later complained.
He said he was “determined” to change the way he behaved – but that he would not stand down as Aberdeen Donside MSP.
The former city councillor stunned Holyrood nine days ago when he quit the government citing “inappropriate” behaviour.
The Press and Journal revealed last week that he had sent a text message to a woman which included a reference to a sex act.
The woman who complained said she decided to take action because “people have to change”.
