Ian Blackford has announced he will step down as the SNP's Westminster leader, however talk has now turned to who could replace him.
The MP for Ross, Skye and Lochaber said in a statement on Thursday that he will not seek re-election at the party's AGM next week, claiming it is time for "fresh leadership".
The SNP is gearing up to fight the next general election as a de facto referendum following the Supreme Court's ruling that Holyrood cannot legislate for another vote on independence without Westminster's consent.
