Humza Yousaf leaves SNP conference stage to speak to protester

Humza Yousaf halted his address to the SNP conference after he was heckled by a member of the audience.

The First Minister was just minutes into his keynote speech on independence at Caird Hall in Dundee when the protestor started shouting over him. As the rest of the crowd began to boo the woman, Yousaf said: "Okay folks, lets not boo. I'm going to take a minute to talk with this person."

The SNP leader then swiftly exited the stage and made his way to the back of the venue, as the woman continued to yell. He could then be seen trying to console the protestor, who was visibly upset and continued to shout as he spoke to her.
