Welcome to Q Research Scotland

If you are Scottish, no doubt by now you will have noticed that neither the Scottish nor UK Parliament represent you THE PEOPLE.

New "rules" are being made up daily to undermine our Legal System, effectively turning us into Government Property. We no longer are in control of our government, they no longer even pretend to act on our behalf once elected. Pretty soon they will no longer need to play along with their fake elections designed to brainwash you into believing they work for you.

The intention of this board is to provide free space for the people of this Nation to circumvent the traitorous Media, Government and Business interests arrayed against us the people, to allow us to post a collection of open-sourced and verifiable information, supplied BY and FOR the People to demonstrate their corruption and lies and take back OUR power.

UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL.

Let's take back our power collectively, no matter your racial, employment (yes, the police and military too) or religious background, we are all in this together, and will be subjected to the same tyranny if we allow the perverts and criminals in power to proceed with their plans.

Top Scots cop claims police shouldn't be dealing with 'hurt feelings' in latest Hate Crime criticism

Chief superintendent Gordon McCreadie claimed that there should be more frontline policing in communities, but in order to do this there either needed to be more cops on the street, or take them off dealing with 'hurt feelings.'

David Walker

APR 2024

A top Scots cop has hit out at Humza Yousaf's Hate Crime shambles as he insisted that officers should not be dealing with "hurt feelings." Chief superintendent Gordon McCreadie pointed out that if this was the case then the force needs more officers on the beat so that crime can be dealt with as well.

The new law was brought in on April 1 and led to a huge influx of complaints, with Police Scotland inundated with more than 7,000 in just the first week. The vast majority of these were not taken any further than the initial report, with only just over 200 dealt with under the legislation.

It has meant that already overworked officers need to investigate every single complaint, with overtime bills being racked up in their thousands. Concerns were also raised that it would take bobbies away from dealing with other crimes such as assault or theft.

Ch Supt McCreadie made the comments on Twitter in response to a complaint from a user that there is no longer a visible force in communities to deter criminals in the first place. He is also the local policing commander in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde and posted originally about his Friday night spent on the frontline.

He wrote: "Our response officers are one of the most important facets of policing. On Friday night I joined them and saw them tackling a range of challenging & dangerous incidents with partners, from knife carriers (below) to flat fires, missing children and bar fights.

"Being out on Friday night across Paisley, Renfrew and Johnstone absolutely affirmed the incredible and RELENTLESS work our response and community officers do protect communities. Thanks too to all our partners I saw deployed."

A social media user responded to him by airing his concerns about a lack of community policing: "Let’s get back to highly visible routine patrols and community policing. Responding quickly to a call is one thing but being a visible deterrent in the first place is better."

Ch Supt McCreadie replied: "Completely agree. Something has to change though as the maths simply don’t work. From what I saw and hear one of two things is needed: A) We need to stay in our lane. Prevention first and tackling crime and the upper tariff of wellbeing (not hurt feelings) B) More officers."

The number of cops in Scotland has reduced massively in recent months, despite a vow from the Scottish Government to keep them at steady levels. The Scottish Police Federation claimed that it has fallen to below 16,000, although this has been disputed by Police Scotland.

And they now need to deal with reports from people claiming that a hate crime has been committed, with advertising claiming that if you perceive this to happen, then you should report it to cops. The Scottish Tories are calling for the legislation to be repealed, and welcomed Ch Supt McCreadie's comments.

Scottish Conservative shadow justice secretary Russell Findlay MSP told the Scottish Daily Express: “Out-of-touch SNP ministers believe that everyone else is wrong in their blind defence of Humza Yousaf’s hate crime law which could be scrapped. They need to start listening to the testimony of experienced officers like this who understand that effective policing involves the presence of officers in our community and a focus on tackling real crimes, not hurt feelings.”

A Scottish Government spokeswoman said: “Scotland’s police officers do an outstanding job to keep communities safe, with recorded crime at one of the lowest levels since 1974 and down 39% since 2006-07.

"Despite deeply challenging financial circumstances due to the UK Government settlement, our Budget for next year includes record police funding of £1.55 billion – an increase of £92.7 million. This enables Police Scotland to retain police numbers of around 16,500-16,600. Scotland continues to have more police officers per capita than England and Wales and higher pay ranges for officers at all ranks.”

Top Scots KC says any Peter Murrell embezzlement trial unlikely to happen until 2026

Ben Borland

19 APR 2024

One of Scotland's top advocates said a potential embezzlement trial involving Peter Murrell would be unlikely to happen until 2026 at the earliest. This raises the potential of a clash with the next Scottish Parliament election.

Thomas Ross KC told BBC Scotland News he did not know whether the case, if it did go to court, would be held at the sheriff or the high court. But he added: "Clearly if the case was at the high court they already have trials there in August 2025.

"It is not unusual for a case to take a year to get to the high court for its first appearance and then to take another year for the trial. So, if we work on that basis that a charge has only just been brought and the case is just about to be reported to the procurator fiscal, then it could easily be two years before the case gets to court."

After Mr Murrell was charged with embezzlement of SNP funds on Thursday evening, the next step will be for Police Scotland to submit a standard prosecution report (SPR) to the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service. It will be for the COPFS to decide whether or not to move ahead with a criminal trial.

The procurator fiscal must consider if the police have gathered sufficient evidence to prove a crime has been committed – and that the accused is the person responsible for that crime. They will also decide whether it is in the public interest to prosecute, with the huge sums spent on Operation Branchform likely to be a factor.

The next Holyrood election is due to be held on Thursday, May 7, 2026. As things stand, Mr Murrell's wife, Nicola Sturgeon, has said she intends to carry on as MSP for Glasgow Southside until at least that date – although there have been calls for the former SNP leader to quit politics.

She has barely spoken at the Scottish Parliament since standing down as first minister last year and is currently working on a "deeply personal and revealing" memoir, which is due to be published in 2025.

Although still more than two years away, the opinion polls suggest the SNP is on course to lose power in 2026 with Scottish Labour likely to be the biggest party. This would give Anas Sarwar the first bite at forming a coalition government with the Lib Dems or even the Greens.

However, the first big electoral test for Humza Yousaf will come much sooner with the UK general election looking increasingly like it will be a make-or-break event for his faltering leadership of the Nats.

Crown Office hasn't received Peter Murrell embezzlement charge report five days after his re-arrest

The former chief executive of the SNP, and Nicola Sturgeon's husband, was officially charged by Police Scotland last week but prosecutors have yet to receive a standard prosecution report.

David Walker

23 APR 2024

Scotland's Crown Office has still not received a report from Police Scotland about former SNP chief executive Peter Murrell, almost a week since he was charged by cops. Prosecutors have not caught sight of a charge sheet involving Nicola Sturgeon's husband, who is accused of embezzling from his former party.

Cops have yet to send a standard prosecution report to the procurator fiscal which could mean a number of things, including that further charges in relation to an individual or the overall investigation are still being considered. The former first minister and ex-party treasurer Colin Beattie are still suspects in Operation Branchform.

A spokesman for the Crown Office told the Scottish Daily Express: “Senior professional prosecutors from COPFS and an Advocate Depute are working with police on this ongoing investigation. It is standard practice that any case regarding politicians is dealt with by prosecutors without the involvement of the Lord Advocate or Solicitor General. All Scotland’s prosecutors act independently of political interference.Not according to Roger Livermore.

“As is routine, to protect the integrity of ongoing investigations, we do not comment in detail on their conduct.” It is understood a report has not been sent to prosecutors to consider whether to take the case to court or not.

Mr Murrell was re-arrested by cops on Thursday morning and grilled for around nine hours at Falkirk police station before being charged with embezzlement as part of the police's long-running probe into the finances of the SNP. Operation Branchform launched in the summer of 2021 to look at whether £600k of ring-fenced funds donated for independence referendum campaigning had been illegally spent elsewhere.

Former Police Scotland chief constable Sir Iain Livingston suggested before he stepped down that the probe had been expanded to look at allegations of fraud, misuse of funds and embezzlement. Cops raided the marital home shared by Ms Sturgeon and her husband in April 2023 and seized a number of items.

We previously told how senior figures in the SNP feared that more charges would be brought against members of the party, in addition to the single charge brought against Mr Murrell. It has caused turmoil within the party as well, with Humza Yousaf's leadership questioned as he failed to distance himself from the former chief executive.

Mr Murrell refused to comment on the issue when he returned home on Thursday evening before it was revealed that he had resigned his membership of the party he served as chief executive for more than two decades. Ms Sturgeon revealed it was a "difficult" time for her.

She has now cancelled her appearance in front of MPs next week, where she was due to be grilled about her time in Bute House. However, she will now need to reschedule this.

Speaking to journalists last week, she said: "There is absolutely nothing I can say given the circumstances. I'm now going to go a walk if that's alright with you. I know you’ve got jobs to do but can I ask you to maybe give my neighbours some peace.

“There is nothing going to be happening here. It’s incredibly difficult, but that’s not the main issue. I can’t say anymore, I’m not going to say any more. I hope you can appreciate I’m quite a new driver, try not to distract me while I’m driving away.”

ROYAL TRAGEDY Princess Beatrice’s ex boyfriend Paolo Liuzzo dies of drug overdose in Miami hotel room leaving royal heartbroken

Liuzzo had repeated run-ins with the law including over the death of a student in a fistfight

Alex Diaz, Matt Wilkinson & Joe Hadden

24 Apr 2024

PRINCESS Beatrice was just 17 when she started dating her tragic first love Paolo Liuzzo in 2005.

His death at 41 from a suspected overdose, in a Miami hotel in February, came as sources said he had struggled with drugs and racked up big gambling debts.

Beatrice, now 35, found out soon after her mum Sarah Ferguson’s shock skin cancer diagnosis.

Liuzzo had repeated run-ins with the law including over the death of a student and cocaine possession.

Officer Michael Vega, of the Miami Police Department, told The Sun police found Liuzzo after being called to a room at the citizenM Miami Worldcenter hotel at 3.22pm on February 7.

The time of death was given as 3.34pm. The cause has not been disclosed due to Florida records law.

Officer Vega said: “It was investigated as an overdose death. The investigation is open and ongoing.”

The death certificate says Liuzzo had been working as an art industry consultant and never married.

He was listed as living at an apartment building near the hotel.

His body was flown back to his native Long Island, New York, for a funeral on February 16.

A pal of Liuzzo admitted: “Paolo was not doing great on a personal level. He loved to party and gamble. He began using a lot of pharmaceutical drugs but that later led to cocaine and harder drugs.

“It was a very fast lifestyle and we all feared it would catch up with him eventually.”

The friend added: “He was always borrowing money to pay loans. It became a vicious cycle.”

Liuzzo and Beatrice — six years his junior — started dating in 2005 but kept it under wraps until he joined her family’s ski holiday to Switzerland in 2006.

Four years earlier Liuzzo had been charged with the fist-fight death of a student in Massachusetts.

The charge was downgraded to assault and battery, and he served 100 hours’ community service.

Regardless, Fergie backed her daughter’s fledgling romance, saying: “We all have our own journeys and have to learn our way but Beatrice is a sensible girl, soon to be 18, with many friends including Paolo.”

However, the publicity led to Liuzzo being hauled back to the US for flouting his probation conditions, since he was allowed to travel abroad only for work.

He had his three-year probation extended by six months, and Beatrice publicly ended the romance.

Paolo later said: “It was a stupid fist fight and if I had gone to trial, my lawyers were certain I’d have been found innocent.

“But if it came out that me and Bea were dating, it wouldn’t be good for her image or Sarah’s so everyone was trying to keep our relationship a secret.”

After the split he claimed Bea and Eugenie, then 15, had attended a party in Jamaica where guests smoked cannabis and took magic mushrooms.

And later he cruelly dismissed his relationship, with Bea, saying: “I wasn’t sure I wanted to get in that deep with Bea.

“I loved her but I wasn’t in love with her.”

>>20772936

………………………………………………………………………………….continued……………………………………………………………………………

He added: “Sometimes another lady friend of mine would come over to my place at Eaton Square in London. It was just messing around, never anything more, and I felt so bad after because of Bea.

“I’m not a bad person. But it’s like putting heroin in front of Pete Doherty. Women are my weakness.”

In September 2009 Liuzzo, then 27, was arrested on Australia’s Gold Coast after crashing his Audi hire car into traffic lights.

He had also failed to pay for accommodation and restaurant bills at a casino.

He pleaded guilty to motoring offences, fraud and cocaine possession and was fined £2,600.

No conviction was recorded but the magistrate blasted Liuzzo for his “cavalier” attitude to the court.

Public records show in recent years he had several brushes with Florida police over driving offences.

Liuzzo was understood to have inherited a fortune after his dad, Italian plastic resin tycoon Nico Liuzzo, died aged 62 in 2001.

After her split from Liuzzo, Beatrice began dating Virgin Galactic executive Dave Clark.

When he got a job at Uber, she enrolled on a finance course in San Francisco to be near him.

But they split by mutual agreement after ten years, in 2016.

Bea was pictured with fitness trainer James Williams, then CNBC host Wilfred Frost, but suggestions of romance were shot down.

In 2018 she was confirmed to be dating property tycoon Edo Mapelli Mozzi, a member of the Italian nobility.

The pandemic meant they had to cancel plans for a grand wedding at St James’s Palace, in May 2020.

Instead, in July that year, they held an intimate ceremony at All Saints Chapel, Windsor, witnessed by a few guests including the late Queen Elizabeth II.

The couple now have daughter Sienna, two, and split time between homes in London and Oxfordshire.

Liuzzo’s siblings Annalisa and Roberto did not respond to requests for comment on his death.

The Sun also asked the citizenM Miami Worldcenter hotel for comment but did not hear back.

PRINCESS Beatrice’s bad boy first boyfriend has died of a suspected drug overdose in the US.

Troubled Paolo Liuzzo lost his life aged just 41 in a room at the trendy citizenM hotel in downtown Miami on February 7.

Cops confirmed his tragic downfall is being investigated as an overdose death.

The New York-born playboy began dating Prince Andrew’s eldest daughter in 2005, when she was only 17 and he was 23.

His shock death came just weeks after Beatrice’s mum Sarah Ferguson was diagnosed with skin cancer.

Liuzzo had repeated run-ins with the law throughout his life, including over the death of a student and possession of cocaine.

SNP MSPs tired of 'f***ing cranks' like Patrick Harvie holding Humza Yousaf to 'ransom'

Scottish Green members are set to vote on the future of the Bute House Agreement and some in the SNP are hoping they will decide to end the deal

Douglas Dickie

24 APR 2024

A groundswell of feeling that the SNP should ditch the Bute House Agreement is growing among Nationalist MSPs, with one politician saying they were being dictated to be "f***ing cranks". The future of the deal is hanging in the balance with Scottish Green members becoming disillusioned with the arrangement.

Agreed by Nicola Sturgeon in 2021 to prop up an SNP government, the coalition handed ministerial roles to Scottish Green co-leaders Patrick Harvie and Lorna Slater. Initially backed by party members, relations are now strained after the Scottish Government ditched a key climate target.

Arguments over the response to the Cass review into transgender healthcare has also highlighted differences, with the Greens accused of being anti-science by refusing the accept the report. Calls are now growing for Humza Yousaf to give his party members a say on the future of the Bute House Agreement.

While the First Minister backs it, others have said it has led to a drop in SNP support in the polls. And one MSP was quoted by political columnist Euan McColm as asking how the party "ended up with a leader being held to ransom by f***ing cranks".

Writing in The Scotsman, McColm said there was a growing feeling within the backbench ranks that the time had come to end the deal. Another MSP said: "We've been pathetic on the Cass stuff. It was bad enough Humza ignoring it for days but then to have Harvie out there rubbishing it is intolerable."

McColm quotes another source saying things had changed since Ms Sturgeon secured the backing of the Green group. They said: "Is Humza really going to wait for weeks to see whether a bunch of Green members give him what he wants? Are we really letting these people dictate to us? He should give us back some dignity and end the Bute House Agreement now."

We reported on Wednesday that a poll in the pro-Scexit The National suggested almost two-thirds of independence supporters wanted the deal scrapped. But despite the pressure, Mr Yousaf has continued to back his partners.

Spaking earlier this week, he said: "I hope that cooperation agreement will continue and I hope that Greens members will also see the benefit of that cooperation."

Why the Bute House Agreement has ended and what happens to Humza Yousaf's government now

Humza Yousaf has dumped Patrick Harvie and Lorna Slater after three years in government together - and it has not gone down well with the Scottish Greens

Douglas Dickie

25 APR 2024

The Bute House Agreement that had propped up the SNP in government has come to an end - and it has proved to be an acrimonious split. Humza Yousaf might have told Lorna Slater and Patrick Harvie, "it's not you, it's me", but the Green duo still reacted with all the fury and bitterness of a scorned lover.

Hailed by Nicola Sturgeon in 2021 as an example of "doing politics and governance better" when she signed the deal after the Scottish election, it has proved to be a controversial arrangement with dissatisfaction growing on both sides.

Things have come to a head in recent weeks with Green members especially becoming upset with the agreement. On the SNP side, Yousaf and his allies were bigging up the deal just hours before he scrapped it but criticism, was growing among his backbenchers.

So what changed to bring this partnership to an end? And crucially, what happens next?

Cass review and puberty blockers

Gender issues have cast a shadow over Scottish politics since the Greens entered government. Fervent supporters of making it easier to legally change gender, they were the driving force behind the controversial Gender Recognition and Reform Bill, which passed Holyrood in December 2022.

It was blocked by the UK Government over concerns with the Equality Act and was widely seen to have played a part in Nicola Sturgeon's resignation. The issue was thrust back into the spotlight this month when the Cass review into transgender healthcare was published.

While the report only covered England, the SNP government found itself under pressure to implement its recommendations. Key to this was stopping the prescribing of puberty blockers to children. Humza Yousaf tried to dodge the issue and passed the buck to clinicians to make the call - which they duly did, with two health boards announcing a pause.

The move, and the SNP's unwillingness to prevent it, angered many Greens. Patrick Harvie was scathing in his judgement of the Cass report, questioning its legitimacy. It led to accusations from SNP MSP Michelle Thomson that he was a science denier. Harvie's criticism left many SNP politicians uneasy with one saying he was a "f***ing crank".

Mairi McAllan ditches key climate pledge

The Cass fallout had already driven a wedge between the two nationalist allies. But Mairi McAllan's announcement last week that the Scottish Government was ditching a key climate pledge proved to be the straw that broke the camel's back.

The SNP had committed to cutting carbon emission by 75% by 2030 - a target they were repeatedly told was too ambitious. The u-turn was a humiliation and McAllan was left trying to spin it as a restructuring of the Net Zero plan. The eight Green MSPs at Holyrood failed to call out the government, but members were less impressed.

Green EGM and Yousaf takes the plunge

Member anger led to the Scottish Green Party confirming an EGM would be held on the future of the Bute House Agreement. It led to growing voices in the SNP that the deal should be put to their members as well.

As late as Wednesday, Yousaf was extolling the virtues of the deal. But as the prospect of being dumped by the Greens increased, he had a change of heart on Wednesday evening and called an emergency cabinet meeting. Just before it, he invited Harvie and Slater to Bute House to sack them.

What happens now

With 63 MSPs, the SNP remains the biggest party at Holyrood. But that leaves them two short of a majority.

The Greens had allowed first Sturgeon and then Yousaf to pass their budgets through parliament. Many expected the Greens would still back their nationalist allies given they both support independence rather than risk the future of a pro-Scecit majority.

But the anger from Harvie and Slater on Thursday was clear. They savaged Yousaf, saying he could no longer be trusted and questioning his ability to lead.

It leaves him in danger of becoming a lame duck FM if he cannot get others on board. The sole Alba Party member Ash Regan, who defected from the SNP, could offer one route, and minorities have operated at Holyrood before, but given the Nats have spent much of the past few years fomenting division, it is unlikely they have many friends left elsewhere in the chamber.

Humza Yousaf running a 'zombie' government as SNP held hostage by the Scottish Greens

Fears have been raised that the first minister and his administration may be scared to introduce legislation over the next month to not scare off the Scottish Greens.

David Walker

24 APR 2024

Humza Yousaf is now running a "zombie government" it has been claimed while the SNP await the results of the Scottish Greens' Bute House Agreement vote. It means that the nationalist administration will struggle to push through any legislation and will be looking to placate the environmentalists.

This was shown on Tuesday when the first minister's flagship justice reforms barely made it through the first stage of debate with only 60 MSPs voting for it, compared to 62 abstaining. It included a mini rebellion of Nat MSPs, as Kate Forbes, Fergus Ewing, Annabelle Ewing, Michelle Thomson, Ivan McKee and Christine Grahame all refused to vote for it.

And the Scottish Government was blasted over its response to the Cass Review as it failed to announce anything of something substance, with rivals suggesting this was to placate the Greens whose grassroots membership raged about the pause on puberty blockers to those under-18.

Now, concerns have been raised that Mr Yousaf's administration will be in a state of "paralysis" until a decision is made on the Bute House Agreement. The first minister outright refused to give his own party a vote, telling journalists on Wednesday it was "not needed or wanted" despite growing calls from some Nats for this to happen.

Opponents have accused him of creating a vacuum which will have an impact on the current administration as it will be too worried to put forward anything controversial. Scottish Tory chairman Craig Hoy said: "Scotland can't afford to endure weeks of a zombie government while Green members decide on the future of their pact with the SNP.

"This coalition of chaos has been a disaster for Scotland and it's a measure of how painfully weak Humza Yousaf is that he's now at the mercy of another party's vote. If he had any backbone, he'd be pulling the plug on the Bute House Agreement himself rather than leaving the country in limbo while others determine whether he leads a majority or minority government.

"The anti-growth Greens should never have been invited into government in the first place and so long as the First Minister is desperately trying to placate them - as he did with the vacuous ministerial statement on the Cass review - Scotland is in a state of paralysis."

Many commentators have claimed that it would be another humiliation for Mr Yousaf to have agreement collapse around him without him even being involved. He has yet to show leadership since being appointed, failing to distance himself from Nicola Sturgeon despite the scandals embroiling her.

Scottish Labour business manager Martin Whitfield said: "Any shred of credibility the Scottish Greens had left has been abandoned with Scotland's 2030 climate targets." Former SNP minister Ash Regan lodged a no confidence motion in Mr Harvie due his failure to accept the Cass Review, but it is unlikely to even be debated due to a lack of support from other parties.

A Scottish Government source told the Daily Mail: "The Scottish Government was urging calm, and for people to use the time and space between last week and the Green vote in May to consider the issue in a dispassionate manner: more light, less rushing to judgment in the heat of the moment. I'd say it's important not to make the end of the BHA a self-fulfilling prophecy."

Scottish Green co-leaders Patrick Harvie and Lorna Slater held an emergency press conference after the end of the powersharing deal between the SNP

Their party said last week it would hold a vote on the future of the Bute House Agreement in which the Greens were junior partners to the SNP in government.

The decision followed a Scottish Government announcement ditching a key climate change target and the pause of puberty blockers for new patients attending the only Scottish gender identity clinic for children in Glasgow.

The SNP's power-sharing deal with the Scottish Green Party has been scrapped.

Scottish Greens co-leaders Lorna Slater and Patrick Harvie were seen walking out of Bute House before an emergency cabinet meeting. The Greens said the SNP had "sold out future generations".

It follows the Government's decision to scrap key climate targets and a pause on the prescription of puberty blockers for under-18s.

The SNP will now form a minority government.

First Minister Humza Yousaf said he had formally notified Ms Slater and Mr Harvie that the Bute House agreement - which was signed by the two parties following the Holyrood election in 2021 - had been terminated.

TalkTV's Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by Scottish editor of the Daily Telegraph Alan Cochrane who says he is “delighted” with the decision.

Former SNP council leader in court on sex offences charges

5 hours ago

A former SNP council leader has appeared in court charged with multiple sexual offences.

Jordan Linden, 28, who stood down as leader of North Lanarkshire Council two years ago, is accused of 17 charges, including six charges of sexual assault.

He made no plea during a hearing in private at Dundee Sheriff Court before Sheriff James Williamson and was granted bail.

A date for his next court appearance has yet to be confirmed.

The alleged offences are said to have taken place at a number of locations, including Glasgow, North Lanarkshire, and Dundee.

Mr Linden became a councillor for the Bellshill ward during the 2017 local elections.

He was elected leader of the council in May 2022 but resigned from the post a few weeks later when a newspaper published allegations against him.

He initially continued serving as a councillor but resigned from both the council and the SNP last year.

SNP MELTDOWN Entire Scottish Cabinet could be forced to resign as Labour cranks up pressure on SNP with fresh confidence vote

The vote would be binding and could spell disaster for the Scottish Government

The vote would be binding and could spell disaster for the Scottish Government

Paige Beresford

26 Apr 2024

THE entire SNP Cabinet could be forced to resign after Scottish Labour announced a vote of no confidence in the Scottish Government as pressure on Humza Yousaf ratchets up.

Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar said his party would lay the motion before parliament this afternoon.

It comes after we told how The First Minister faces a Tory-led vote of no confidence next week.

But unlike the Tory vote on the First Minister, this vote WOULD be binding and means if the Scottish Government loses the vote, Humza Yousaf and his cabinet would have to resign.

There would then be 28 days to introduce a new leader, or the SNP face a Scottish election.

Mr Sarwar told LBC News: "I think it's now a matter of when, not if, Humza Yousaf resigns as First Minister.

"But I think it would be completely untenable for the SNP to presume they can impose another unelected Frist Minister in Scotland.

"And that's why Scottish Labour has said already we don't have confidence in Humza Yousaf.

"But today we will also be laying a motion before parliament saying that the Scottish parliament does not have confidence in this Scottish Government.

"Because, ultimately, I think it is the people of Scotland who should decide who leads this country, not just a small group of SNP members".

He also insisted: "It is for the people of Scotland to decide who is first minister, not just a group of SNP members.

"Removing Humza Yousaf alone will not deliver the change we need, we need to get rid of the entire SNP government which has left almost one in six Scots on an NHS waiting list, public finances in chaos and public services at breaking point.

"The people of Scotland deserve a fresh start, this can only come with a Scottish election."

It comes as Mr Yousaf cancelled a major speech on independence this morning an hour after a key ally claimed he would “come out fighting” over the threat to his leadership.

Nats MP Stephen Flynn called for “cool heads” and “calm words”, after Mr Yousaf infuriated Green co-leaders Patrick Harvie and Lorna Slater.

Yesterday, he ripped up the power-sharing deal their party agreed with the SNP under Nicola Sturgeon back in 2021.

Mr Yousaf was due to be giving a speech at the University of Strathclyde, billed as "the second in a series of speeches outlining the Scottish Government’s ambition for a more productive economy to achieve higher living standards in an independent Scotland".

He was then due to take questions from an audience of academics and guests, followed by media interviews.

The Scottish Sun understands Mr Yousaf's aides have been trying to organise another, more "low key" event for him to attend today, when he is expected to speak to media.

Mr Yousaf's fate potentially lies in the hands of the Alba MSP he bad-mouthed just months ago.

He may need the support of Alba Party MSP Ash Regan, who he described as “no great loss” when she defected from the SNP in October last year.

Ms Regan has said she will write to Mr Yousaf ahead of the no-confidence vote, seeking assurances from him in return for her support.

She told BBC Radio 4: “I’m not setting out specific demands, as such, I am really putting the ball into Humza’s court for him to come back to me and explain to me how he will make progress in a couple of these areas, particularly around the return to a competent government.

"I think it's now a matter of when, not if, Humza Yousaf resigns as First Minister"

Anas Sarwar Scottish Labour Leader

“This is something the SNP was obviously known for a few years ago.

"Unfortunately, it’s lost its focus, over the last few years it has gone down pursuing some policies that are not popular with the public, many of those were policies that really stemmed from the coalition agreement with the Green Party.

“So, I think many people in Scotland will be very pleased to see the end of Green Party extremism coming from the Scottish Government.”

And last night, the First Minister’s official spokesperson was forced to deny claims he was set to quit, amid speculation online by political opponents.

Quizzed on whether he would stand to become the next SNP leader if Mr Yousaf was to quit, Mr Flynn said: “What I expect to happen next week is that the First Minister, the leader of my party, wins that vote next week, and he will continue to be the party leader and he will continue to be the First Minister of Scotland.

“Now is not a time to speculate over the future of anyone beyond, of course, the discussion that is being had next week.

“The First Minister has my full support, I believe he is going to come out fighting today, and I’ll be standing shoulder to shoulder with him during that battle.”

Labour will back a motion of no confidence against SNP leader Humza Yousaf and has tabled a further motion against the whole Scottish Government, shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves has said.

“If Anas Sarwar and Scottish Labour are successful with that amendment, the Government will fall and there’ll be fresh elections,” Ms Reeves said.

She added: “We now have two broken governments: the SNP in Scotland and the Conservatives in Westminster. It is time for fresh elections in Scotland and across the UK.”

Ms Reeves said: “The SNP are terribly divided and that is having a real impact on the lives and communities across Scotland. We don’t just want another leader of the SNP – we’ve already had two during this parliament so far.”
