SNP divisions on Humza Yousaf kicking the Greens out of Government
Already some in the SNP are saying they’re unhappy that Yousaf thinks doing a deal with Salmond’s Alba Party is a price worth paying for him to hold onto power - such is the bad blood there. That faction would rather work with the Greens - who Yousaf just dumped from his gov.

Opinion: Humza Yousaf is leading an ungovernable SNP and a divided independence movement. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/… dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…
How would SNP members feel about having a leader propped up by Alex Salmond’s Alba Party? That could be the price to pay for Humza Yousaf saving his political career - he says he would be willing to negotiate with Alba’s solitary MSP so he can carry on as FM. More on @itvnews
What is being cut to free up this money?
Humza Yousaf cuts £196M from the housing budget, pledges to give back £80M over two years. That’s not the sort of arithmetic that will win a vote of confidence 🧮 #HousingEmergency
As I said, it is all @KevinJPringle fault. Bring back Liz...

It’s now a matter of when - not if - Humza Yousaf resigns as First Minister. But this isn’t just about him. We have no confidence in this SNP Government.

I have written to Humza Yousaf this morning requesting a reset, and a return to competent government, where we prioritise independence and protect the dignity, safety and rights of women and children. I remain open to any discussion where we progress the priorities of the people…
He told @COSLA he would be speaking to them after announcing the Council Tax freeze without any consultation but proceeded to support even more breaches of the Verity House Agreement. He cannot be trusted. He has to go.

💥A political bloodbath for the SNP’s Humza Yousaf who now faces the fallout of ‘a major miscalculation’. His fate could lie in the hands of his ex-leadership rival Ash Regan. Analysis piece… @SkyNews 👇🏽 news.sky.com/story/ash-rega…

SNP divisions on Humza Yousaf kicking the Greens out of Government
On Thursday morning, First Minister Humza Yousaf informed the leaders of the Scottish Green Party that he was ending the Bute House Agreement (BHA). The First Minister made this decision without democratically consulting the SNP membership, despite the fact that over 90% of 1/
So much for it being Ash Regan's decision
An emergency meeting of Alba’s National Executive Committee will be convened over the weekend to discuss whether they will back Humza Yousaf in the motion of no confidence.

Already some in the SNP are saying they’re unhappy that Yousaf thinks doing a deal with Salmond’s Alba Party is a price worth paying for him to hold onto power - such is the bad blood there. That faction would rather work with the Greens - who Yousaf just dumped from his gov.
How would SNP members feel about having a leader propped up by Alex Salmond’s Alba Party? That could be the price to pay for Humza Yousaf saving his political career - he says he would be willing to negotiate with Alba’s solitary MSP so he can carry on as FM. More on @itvnews
Humza Yousaf deserves to fall, the SNP deserves to fall and Scotland deserves an election For sheer political naivety Yousaf has shown himself unfit for office. He walked into his own trap. His dire cabinet should go with him. Scotland needs a fresh start heraldscotland.com/politics/viewp…
Arbroath West, Letham and Friockheim (Angus) by-election, first preferences: Conservative: 1682 (41.9%, +10.6) SNP: 1175 (29.3%, -6.9) Labour: 644 (16.1%, +9.6) Lib Dem: 333 (8.3%, +3.9) Green: 176 (4.4%, +1.1) (No Inds, 8.9, 8.1, or Alba, 1.3) Conservative elected stage 5.
For those thinking Humza Yousaf will be able to win the Greens around [and that probably includes the FM] they should go listen to a very tearful Gillian Mackay on the BBC's Drivetime and to Ross Greer on Holyrood Sources podcast. This is very personal.
Opinion: Humza Yousaf is leading an ungovernable SNP and a divided independence movement. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/… dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…

First Minister Humza Yousaf denies it’s over for him. He says he’ll fight on, and he’ll try to win back the Greens - after ditching them from his government just yesterday which led to him now facing a Confidence Vote. Our full interview coming up on @itvnews and @ITVX
Humza Yousaf tells me he’s fighting on and he still believes he can win this confidence vote. He’s going to try to convince the Greens to reconsider, but even if he’s propped up by Alex Salmond’s Alba Party he says he would continue as FM. Says he hasn’t considered resigning.
Humza Yousaf cuts £196M from the housing budget, pledges to give back £80M over two years. That’s not the sort of arithmetic that will win a vote of confidence 🧮 #HousingEmergency
For those people, including Scottish Government ministers, who RT and repeat unfounded criticism of the Cass Review, the following from Hilary Cass hopefully clears up some of those misinterpretations.
Following publication of the final report there have been a number of questions and points for clarification so we've produced some FAQs cass.independent-review.uk/home/publicati…
"It was the right thing to do to end the Bute agreement, but the wrong thing to do to end it in such a dramatic fashion." Liz Lloyd, former advisor to Nicola Sturgeon, says Humza Yousaf made a "miscalculation" in the way he ended the power-sharing deal with the Scottish Greens.
It’s now a matter of when - not if - Humza Yousaf resigns as First Minister. But this isn’t just about him. We have no confidence in this SNP Government.
We're at @inverclyde Council's Jobs Fair in Greenock Town Hall - why not stop by and say hello, find out how you could be working for RCH Group! #ImprovingLivesAndPlaces
Humza Yousaf has cancelled a planned speech on independence today amid reports he is 'considering his position' as First Minister. news.stv.tv/politics/humza…
The FM's speech in Glasgow has been cancelled, the Scottish Government has finally decided to confirm after it was reported everywhere. We're now off to Dundee for an event there instead.
We’re at the count for the Arbroath West, Letham and Friockheim by-election this morning supporting @MHlabour 🌹 Wish us luck 🎉
It's going to be a crazy day. Everything hangs in the balance. It's entirely their own fault that they're in this position but now they need to come out fighting. Leeds vs QPR, 8pm.
The First Minister's allies say he's going to will come out fighting - but he won't be doing it in Glasgow, it seems.
Humza Yousaf was due to give a speech on independence in Glasgow this afternoon - those due to attend have now received an e-mail to confirm it has been cancelled
