Yousaf faces no-confidence vote as he fights for survival

Scotlandā€™s first minister Humza Yousaf is battling for his political survival after a chaotic 24 hours which saw him end the SNPā€™s governing partnership with the Greens on Thursday. This was followed a couple of hours later by the Scottish Conservatives putting forward a motion of no confidence in the first minister. The motion was backed by Scottish Labour, the Scottish Lib Dems and, crucially, the Greens, who just 24 hours earlier were close cabinet colleagues. It leaves Mr Yousaf potentially having to rely on Alex Salmondā€™s Alba Party, and their one MSP Ash Regan, to survive a no-confidence vote. Report by Jonesia.
