We’d like to hear people’s views on the current political fallout in Scotland and the resignation of first minister Humza Yousaf.

Yousaf had scrapped the Bute House agreement, which was brokered by his predecessor Nicola Sturgeon in 2021 and cemented a progressive, pro-independence majority at Holyrood, after increasing internal criticism within the SNP of Green influence on policy direction.

Responding to Yousaf’s announcement, the Scottish Labour leader, Anas Sarwar, called for an election. “The SNP are a divided party which is out of ideas and incapable of rising to the challenges Scotland faces,” he said.

What do you make of Scottish politics currently, and what would you like to see happening next?
