Nicola Sturgeon considering becoming foster mum after quitting as First Minister

Former First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has said she is seriously considering becoming a foster mum now that she has left office.

The long-serving politician told the Daily Record that she was "thinking long and hard" about fostering and that he feels she has a "burning" duty to help care-experienced young people.

Ms Sturgeon also spoke of how she had cried for those from the sector who had tragically taken their own lives and also sounded a warning for her successor Humza Yousaf by saying she would become a loud and clear critic if promises made to children in care are not met.
