MSP Bill Walker has resigned after being convicted last month of a series of domestic abuse offences.


Walker, 71, had been facing pressure to step down from the Scottish Parliament over the offences committed against three of his ex-wives.


More than half of Scotland's 129 MSPs had backed a motion calling for him to go.


In a statement, Walker said a "media onslaught" had made it impossible for him to continue.
