Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf Resigns

Humza Yousaf has announced his resignation as Scotland's First Minister on Monday afternoon, having ended the Scottish National Party's (SNP) coalition agreement with the Green Party last week.

BBC News

Making the announcement at midday, Yousaf stated that while he believed his decision to end the Bute House Agreement with the Greens was the "right decision for the country," he had "underestimated the level of hurt" caused during consequent attempts to agree a "less formal arrangement" while acting in minority government.

Yousaf continued that he believed that "repairing our relationships across the political divide" could only be achieved "with someone else at the helm." The First Minister will remain in the role until a successor is appointed.

The National News

Following the end of their coalition agreement, Green Party co-leaders Patrick Harvie and Lorna Slater confirmed that they would support a vote of no confidence against the devolved SNP Government alongside Scottish Conservatives, Labour, and the Liberal Democrats.

The three-year SNP-Green coalition broke down following the announcement that Scotland would no longer aim to meet its 2030 target of reducing carbon emissions by 75%.

The news also comes after Peter Murrell, former chief executive of the SNP for over two decades and husband of Humza Yousaf's predecessor Nicola Sturgeon, was charged by Scottish Police earlier this month in connection to the alleged embezzlement of £660K (821K) in party funds.
