THE opposition is gunning for Humza Yousaf’s scalp but refusing to address the Brexit elephant in the room, as Scotland’s NHS faces its most difficult winter on record.
The Health Secretary was asked if he was “out of his depth” at the First Minister’s press conference in Edinburgh on Monday, setting the tone for the comments which flooded in from Unionist parties following the statement on the NHS crisis.
Labour’s Jackie Baillie demanded he is sacked, the LibDem described Yousaf as “beleaguered” and the Tories called for him to scrap the Scottish Government’s plans and adopt theirs instead.
