It is price remembering the perilous state of affairs Humza Yousaf is at the moment going through at Holyrood.

A movement of no confidence in Mr Yousaf, tabled by the Scottish Tories, is probably the most quick menace to his future. The results of that vote at the moment rests on a knife-edge.

The Tories, Labour, Liberal Democrats and Scottish Greens are all backing the movement, amounting to 64 MSPs in whole.

The SNP has 63 MSPs which implies Mr Yousaf would want to safe the backing of Ash Regan, the Alba Party’s sole MSP, so as to tie the vote.

The Presiding Office at Holyrood would then have the casting vote and can be obligation sure to vote for the established order, permitting Mr Yousaf to outlive. Ms Regan is but to declare how she’s going to vote.

A vote of no confidence in the entire Scottish Government, tabled by Labour, is more durable to foretell as a result of the Scottish Greens haven’t but mentioned how they’d vote.
