“They are dumbfounded. It’s inexplicable that he’s got himself into this position”.
SNP senior figures say Scottish First Minister Humza Yousaf “might not even make it” to the vote of no confidence next Wednesday, says the Times’s John Boothman.

So they bring in someone they know will fail, Liz Truss and Humza. Admittedly Humza couldn’t have done much worse, starting life with a racist rant wasn’t the best idea. Admitting the greens into government was another huge mistake. His premiership has been a slow motion car crash.

Why did Sturgeon keep him as a minister, I was told only last week that someone encouraged Sturgeon and husband to keep him on and again push him into her job as F M when she ran away. Better to have one in the job to help hide things than another face that might expose Sturgeon, open up the books. What was this incentive from this third party cash ?, nothing was made firm. Does Mr Useless have family who can give good money?.
