Everyone in Scotland would become a nationalist after spending just one day as First Minister, says Humza Yousaf. And he probably believes it. His inability to think was a significant contributing factor to his failure.
Woth noting that John Swinney is no friend of local democracy or Parliament 1/4
@alexmassie Some of us are just taking the piss.
At least Swinney might bring some realism to the pensions debate. Reminder: he wrote a memo before the 2014 referendum, conceding that pensions could be cut to deal with an independent Scotland’s fiscal deficit (which would be substantially larger now).

Blimey. Even more scathing about Yousaf.

Scathing assessment of John Swinney by top pollster Professor Sir John Curtice: “Some of us remember John Swinney when he was SNP leader, and he wasn't really that good at it." Could be a worry for the party with a GE looming. Intv by @andrewlearmonth heraldscotland.com/news/24286842.…
Will Swinney offer Forbes DFM and Finance, and to stand aside before the 2026 election? Would suit both of them: avoids a contest Swinney unlikely to have the appetite for, and kicks Forbes’ problems with the Greens (and some in her own party) into 2026.
EXC: Minister says Kate Forbes would need Tory support to become First Minister as some SNP MSPs would not vote for her. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/… dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…

Something worth watching: when Humza Yousaf took over from Nicola Sturgeon, he barely changed her team of SpAds. Almost all of them kept their jobs. If whoever comes next says things are going to change, pay attention to what happens with the advisers.
Humza Yousaf resigned today ahead of a no-confidence vote - our new poll* shows that had it come to a vote, Scots wanted to see him removed by 55% to 24% Even 2019 SNP voters were split 41%-40% on whether Yousaf should be kept or removed *fieldwork conducted 26-29 Apr, all…
My @commonslibrary blog couldn't cover everything, so helpfully @SPICe_Research has provided this comprehensive account, which includes Presiding Officer's power to designate an MSP to carry out the functions of the FM (the term "Acting First Minister" doesn't exist in statute)

Here's a new @commonslibrary Insight blog explainer on how a new First Minister of Scotland will be chosen and what the Scotland Act 1998 says about "extraordinary" general elections: commonslibrary.parliament.uk/how-is-a-first…
Conclusive evidence that secession from the UK would not prevent Scots from continuing to enjoy top flight political incompetence

If I was a Scottish nationalist right now, I’d worry that voters might be noticing what’s going on, and concluding that independence would simply be the same shit-show, but with far less money to spend. And how many people are going to vote for that?
Oh god. I’m going to have to watch another 20 hours of hustings, aren’t I?
NEW: John Swinney says he is giving "very careful consideration" over a bid to become the next SNP leader. Mr Swinney previously led the party between 2000 and 2004, and was deputy First Minister under Nicola Sturgeon from 2014 to 2023.
“We’ll have to, of course, be very wise and careful around the battles that we choose to fight.” Last Thursday’s press conference had the distinct air of Liz Truss about it, right down to the swift exit. “That was sudden”, says a voice from behind the camera. And so it proved.
Believe in Scotland, but also believe it has “but one card to play”?
