Kate Forbes not in the running for SNP leadership - BBC

Humza Yousaf may be first minister, but the Tory leader is already taking aim at his would-be successor.

Douglas Ross called John Swinney the safe pair of hands who has dropped the ball.

He painted the SNP leadership candidate as a failure in office, and a divisive nationalist.

All this, of course, assumes Mr Swinney has already won the leadership.

Labour's Anas Sarwar accused the SNP of a stitch-up for John Swinney, and clinging onto power.

But Humza Yousaf didn't hold back - blaming Mr Ross's Tory party for austerity, Brexit and a cost-of-living crisis.

And he accused Labour of U-turns on EU membership and progressive taxation, and of failing to match an SNP commitment on affordable homes.
