  11. Big sigh of relief, though far too close for comfort. The rightwing press (who heavily promoted Forbes) might see it as a licence to try to bring him down and have another go.

  16. Election numbers. Turnout 70%

    First stage: Humza 24,336 (48%), Kate 20,559 (40%) Ash 5,599 (11%).

    STV system Ash eliminated so her voters 2nd pref distributed.

    Second stage: Yousaf took 26,032 (52%) and Forbes took 23,890 (48%).

  17. CW: Scottish politics

    Humza Yousaf winning the #snpleadership election is not exactly a cause for celebration but it's more that both Forbes and Regan would have been massive steps back for the party and the country.

    Greens are consulting internally now but I expect there will be no issue to stay in government with Yousaf as FM - if there is a vote, that will be my position.

  25. Noteworthy that BBC Scotland in their coverage of the #SNPLeadership election mentioned that 'there is no greater gulf in British politics than that between Tory and SNP'.

    Acknowledgement then that Starmer and Labour are fairly close, to put it mildly, to the Tories.

  30. Interesting.

    If Forbes wins, she will be relying upon older and more conservative party members. She patently doesn't have the confidence of her elected colleagues.

    The SNP has been a progressive party until now. Is this where it ends?

  35. Don’t forget to put the clocks forward one hour tonight. Unless you’re Kate Forbes, in which case you might want to put them forward by about 70 years. ⏰
