Timeline
He resigned from the party on 27 March 2011 unhappy with the direction of his party and the UK Coalition Government in Westminster. He sat as an independent MSP until the May 2011 Scottish Parliament election, when he stood as an independent candidate and was not re-elected, having won only 821 votes.
On 26 March 2011, O'Donnell announced his decision to leave the Liberal Democrats. He had been the leading candidate in the party's Central Scotland list for the 2011 Holyrood election campaign, but decided to stand as an independent candidate in the region.
O'Donnell expressed his unhappiness with the decision to hold a referendum on whether the Alternative Vote should replace traditional first-past-the-post for Westminster elections on the same day as the Scottish parliamentary election. He also complained that the Scottish Lib Dem group had voted tactically against the SNP's proposed policy on minimum pricing on alcohol, rather than on principle. In 2010, the policy failed to win enough support in parliament to progress, despite support from medical, health, police and victim support groups. He wrote: "I have fought the leadership as hard as I could, but I am just too tired to do it any more... This is not the same party I joined, full of enthusiasm, all those years ago... I can no longer be party to the control freakery, the 'image is everything' attitude, and the dictatorial style of doing things... It is a party I no longer want to be part of and neither should other principled Liberals."
O'Donnell was elected in 2007 as a Liberal Democrat Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for the Central Scotland region. He was previously an aide to the former MSP Donald Gorrie.
He contested the Scottish Parliament election in 1999 for Cumbernauld and Kilsyth, coming a distant third. He was one of only eight Scots chosen by the United Nations to supervise the first ever free elections in the former Yugoslavian province of Kosovo in 2001.
