- “His party was indeed, under threat in terms of its Westminster position…Voters now perceive that the SNP has being divided.”
Humza Yousaf’s decision to withdraw from the SNP’s power-sharing deal with the Scottish Greens may have been influenced by fears of losing seats in Westminster in the general election, says Professor Sir John Curtice.

Can't believe that all MSP ministers will support Humza. There must be some members with a shred of dignity
I doubt that there is any

There is a rumour that one or two might have travel delays on vote day.

The SNP have ruined Scotland!! Yousless and the SNP need to go.
scotland is a democracy and we get who the public vote for, if the SNP was a disaster then the public would be wise and not vote for them. the younger scots generations are even more indie so snp which has right wing, left wing among its members aint going away
You are kidding yourself on people are sick of this shower of scoundrels.
@jasalexander-hain2601 Terribly typed comment.
Nobody said anyone was going anywhere. Well, expect useless the racist.
Can you be more specific? Seems to me things are no better or even worse in England. 😮
@@jasalexander-hain2601 The SNP is virtually bankrupt - it can't afford to put a candidate in each constituency unless the candidate shells out too. Alba is the only party which, in the long term (10-20 years) can drive towards Independence as long as it avoids the very poor fiscal controls and vanity projects of the SNP - Scotland currently has a £ 20 BILLION debt, no real export infrastructure, very poor internal market and infrastructure. If Scotland were to go Independent tomorrow, the Scottish Pound would tank immediately, inflation would be beyond 20 % within a month, the value of peoples houses would crash - that may not be at the front of the younger scots generations concerns, but it would be for the bank of Mum & Dad.
Scots - please get rid of this snake in the grass.
We will
Humza a MUST go now!
Give us a Scottish first m8nister not a p….

Never has the old adage been more relevant! 'Beware of treading on those on the way up whom you may need on the way down!!
Let's just have an election and let the people decide. The country is thoroughly scunnered with the SNP and their political stunts.
He won't leave without a struggle but the decision should not rest with Ash Regan that would be very unfair to the Scots. Again we have no say in our Government. Oh dear, the First lady and President will have to move out of their Georgian mansion,
It's not their mansion, it's on loan from National

Who in their right mind would vote green.
The Scots?
Who in their right mind would vote SNP.
@@keeperofthecheese The Scots.

OP did say “In their right mind”.
Humza Useless could not even run a corner shop never mind a country.
But I bet he can run a drugs business with his druggie brother when he gets out of jail and their all sent back to Gaza
Throw him out trying to impose sharia laws on Scotland
The hate crime act was passed back when he was failing as justice secretary. He didn’t come up with this. It’s the SNP in general that’s the issue. The law was never about Islam. It’s about the government silencing critics.
Muslims are actually far more willing to stand up against perverted gender ideology than many native Scots are.
Humza’s a subby who was in the right place at the right time. He’s failed in every government job he’s had. Smugness and slogans are no substitute for a backbone. His “white white white” speech has forever been etched in people’s minds because his hatred was on full display.
The hate crime act appeals to weak, emotionally fragile babies who need to be looked after. People who lack backbone, grit, resiliency, maturity, nuance, or understanding.
Corrupt individuals are using it to settle personal scores
To israel they know how to handle this dirt
Could you highlight one of these laws? For example; heresy being punished by execution, alcohol being banned, inheritance laws being changed so that only male heirs inherit from their Fathers, women being excluded from most jobs and a strict dress code being enforced upon them, homosexuality = death, no public expression of any religion outside of Islam...
I've not been to Scotland in a few years as I don't live in the UK any more. Which are those now in place?
It looks as though Humza Yousless may soon be toast or a lame duck😮
He thought Scotland would be his fief for 10-20 years lol.
She mentions the SNP not having a majority. There has only ever 1 Majority Scottish Government, it was a quirk of Maths, it was designed to be impossible.
Scotland is also very divided the 2014 vote showed this
@@Copium6921they are a very weak people these days.
To little to late out him now
He's a walking dead man
Well the SNP have fallen at the first post in this upcoming election......just my wee vote for what it's worth
The snp couldn’t run a bath,never mind a country,I was an SNP voter,(note the word WAS),I will NEVER vote for them again,EVER
Let's hope this hate spewing individual gets kicked out of power.
Brilliant my favourite Proff John Curtice1:20 John Curtice. I could listen to him forever. 👋👋👋👋
Send Humza on the first flight to Rwanda. I am sure the MPs do have some bravery and dignity left in them, as Scottish to get him out of Scotland. He has done nothing right.
he'll be happy there, no white people in government.
To gaza
Love UK yes we are getting rid of snake in the grass unionists like you
For polling predictions I won't be voting Labour
I remember 1974. I was at granny Knox's wee flat next to the Tunnocks factory
Here's a wee clue re my vote.... I won't be voting SNP.
What happened to putting the people first , then the Party , then oneself?
Which party leader is doing that then? I'll wait....
It would be better if England voted out NI, Scotland and Wales if they wanted to go! Out of the UK
So Humza’s wife is calling the shots? Is she pals with Boris’ wife?
Stop Terrorism, don't support terrorist leader.
Joe law is that support unionists they are the biggest terrorists on the planet
Hope Ash Regan makes the right decision and we say goodbye to someone! Scotland should always be for Scotland. Scotland is a very important Union member.
Scotland did not want to leave the E.U, Scotland was forced out by England. London and England seem to be happy to destroy there country and to do the same too Scotland. The Scots want out of the UK , to be independent from England. So when the Scots vote in there own country it counts for what they want for themselves and Scotland. And not just to be wiped out by England. Never mind whats happening in Scotland, England is falling apart ! There is more separation and anger in England than ever before, England is systematically being destroyed from within.
Humza and Liz Truss should join forces in a new party! Too simplify voting.
When i was in my teens and 20s and maybe even into my early 30s, I was SNP, pro independence and anti-union, wanted to join the SNP at 16/17. However, I started to question how an independent Scotland would survive financially and politically in a world of larger and more established countries. What turned me against the whole idea in the end was Alex Salmond and his vision of an Independent Scotland keeping the Scottish Sterling Pound and the Queen as head of state which sounded ridiculous (I am a Monarchist so no offence to Her Late Majesty). The absolute hypocrisy of this was sickening. I would like to see a safe and secure Scotland left for generations to come, not an impotent nation that is turned into an effective Disneyland country and therefore I am all for Scotland remaining within the Union..
I'm culturally English but half Scottish by blood and half of my family is in Scotland. I think both England and Scotland are better off for the Union. It would be a sad day for both countries if it were to end.
I started off same as you. I think being locked down for so long gave me time to take a closer look at the SNP and Scottish politics in general. The SNP deflect any and all criticism as “far right” or “political games”.
Our nation isn’t equipped to leave the union. We’d be a 3rd world country. Bye bye Westminster and hello Brussels. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Most of “our” land is owned by rich foreigners, as are most of our resources. Drug deaths are the highest in Europe. It’s just such a hopeless place. I’m currently visiting Budapest and it’s so beautiful by comparison, just from walking around.
Strange analogy but….You remember in Cobra Kai when the bullied outcasts had a surge of confidence and then unwittingly found themselves becoming bullies themselves without realising it? That’s the SNP. First Sturgeon breaches the ministerial code, files false sexual harassment charges against Salmond, and now is involved in an embezzlement scam. They’re petty crooks
But when the queen aunt Sally and his fecking eejits in Westminster and labour put a law into place to ban free speech and you.nt signed it into Scottish law with his own words he's a dangerous individual who will do anything to stay in power
@@Jamie_Wulfyrit Will be sad day for you English won't be ruling and stealing and Leeching off of Scotland
There are many things which will stop Independence and most of them are a result of 15+ years of SNP mismanagement but the main one is the £ 20 + BILLION budget deficit the SNP have created. Even though the Barnett Formula delivers around £30 to £35 BILLION annually; Income Tax £ 12 BILLION; VAT & Corporate Tax £ 10 BILLION +++ others.
Humza MacUseless - Simply The Worst .
Volume differential problem is losing you listeners.
"men in grey kilts" genuinely made me chuckle
It’s time England was invited to join the union
Out out 💪💪🏴💙🙏🏻❤️🌹🌹
He is totally out of his depth breathing, let alone politics?
Yeah a total and utter inept diversity hog.
Thought he was Billy big bawz when he terminated the Bute House agreement 😂 he’s an absolute weapon & if Ash Reagan doesn’t play Hangman after how he treated her then we know something Shady AF is going on 🤔 now Humza be on yer way & don’t let the door hit ya where alah split ya 🖕🏼
What do you mean? What did he do too Ash ?
@@radleytube I don’t know his exact words but he was very cruel to her when she left the party just google it I’m sure there will be a few stories on it 👍🏼🏴
He said she won't be missed. If she votes for him she must be a money grabbing cow with no morals
This is what happens when you put a Hamilton Ackie in charge....
I wonder why no branchform arrest have been made. Could it be they need the accused vote. Just saying!!
I can see the unionists are panicking already.
He can’t lose face with his Muslim brothers!
True colours showing. Muslims hate him there. Did you bother doing any research?
The mans a lightweight pure and simple.

Im fed up with all their wheeling dealing..to suit themselves. (All parties). Have a general election and not just a "coronation" We deserve much better, and not someone just slipped in that all the cronies want.
£250 000 to UNWRA? Get him out!
Independent Scotland can look forward to centuries of this.
im Scottish and when the SNP talk about independence lately they bring up that they would join the EU straight after independence but the EU require that you have a stable economy which we wouldn't after independence because England will cut us off and we would end up in a ton of debt from borrowing and it would take about a decade to fix our economy after England stops funding us after we leave the union...
Scotland get block grant funding for the Scottish Government from Westminster and is the highest since devolution began and is £41 billion a year for 2022-2025 but the SNP never mention it... So if we gain independence we lose 41 billion a year in funding, So say goodbye to NHS because we would have no money to spend on NHS, Police and Education... also remember that when we are independent any children born after independence will need a passport to go to the rest of the UK...
Plus everyone should know the moment we vote to leave the union, Westminster will cut off all trade and funding as well as adding a border which would eventually annoy the English and Scottish... there isn't gonna be no Northern Ireland style border agreement because Westminster want us to fail... i support the SNP but not in its current state...
Call me sentimental but aren't the people the most important rather than egotistical self indulgent nihilists.
The thing is Gordon, this is a political stunt by labor /cons who have a very low say in Scotland

Im pretty sure Fergus Ewing wont back Humza !!
On your bike Useless Yousef!!!
Eff Wastemonster,
Typical SNatziP inarticulate comment - it's amazing how the SNatziP seem to attract those who are incapable of individual thought and can only type 'messages from the playbook'. No wonder the party has gone to rack and ruin.
First it was Nicola sturgeon and her husband now this .i sense a pattern.
The irony is that a large number of Scottish Sheeple still think this lot do a good job! I’m not entirely sure how much worse things have to get before they wake up
Nothing will change the vote of those fools apart from if a new party came along that appears to be more Scottish than the SNP.
The majority of citizens of Scotland vote for the Scottish National Party, that is why they are in parliament, Scotland's parliament. Then it's the Alba party ! Labor and conservatives are nearly non existent.
@@radleytubeThe facts tell a very different story. In 2021, the SNP won 64 seats, which is 1 seat short of a majority, hence they teamed up with the Greens who had 8 seats to form a coalition.
Conservatives had 31, Labour had 22, and Lib Dems had 4.
Alba was founded in 2021 😂. No members have been elected to the Scottish parliament. Not yet anyway.
The thing is Scots sometimes make comparisons with Westminster and that tends to colour their thinking with better light.
The perverse ideology of politics going woke and diverse had led to British demise.
Any form of Marxism never works well anywhere…..
Send him to rewanda and paruchut him
As humza useless is un elected ,surely some of those who didn't vote him in would vote against him in the snp .that would certainly get him out ..
Salmond!!!🙄😡🤬
Humza Yousaf MP for Gaza central
Why is the volume so low? about 1/3 of the adverts.
British lies yet again, Soar ALBA
The Edinburgh parliament has only limited powers, restricted to Scotland. Let’s try to understand this as a sports metaphor. Westminster FC are claiming they could be league leaders if only: The guy in the pie & Bovril stand in the north terraces (Holyrood) would perform or It’s the referee's fault (EU) or the visiting fans (Refugees & asylum seekers). Would you be so sanguine if these were the excuses of your team.
Even in the highly unlikely event that Regan votes in favour of the guy, he could still be oustdd via this way. All it would take is for just 2 SNP MSP's to vote 'no' and he's done.
Happy days.
I wonder what way Sturgeon will vote, it was her deal that Humza trashed.
@@robcarrol 👍
My 2 Muslim friends told me that the Muslim community don’t stand with Humza either because he doesn’t represent their interests (let alone the rest of Scotland’s) and he doesn’t stand by his religious principles.
Basically he was asked about gay marriage and he cowtowed, which turned the Muslim community against him. The ground is shrinking beneath his feet but he’s too smug and bitter to honestly self reflect and attempt to learn
Who cares.
Alba or snidey Presiding Officer best not sell Scotland out - this is Holyrood's chance to get rid of a chancer.
There are so many racists in the comments. It's such a shame.
It would seem that Humza's dream of gradually imposing McSharia law in Scotland is fading before his eyes. Sturgeon and Yousaf. McBonnie and McClyde.
Does that mean a Labour resurgence in Scotland? Or a bunch of variously held seats all over the country and yet another argument for PR across Britain?
Why does no one pronounce ALBA properly ?
Curtis is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard he hasn’t a clue
More censorship might help.
Um... no disrespect but I have a bit of trouble understanding the guy.

Talk away. I'm having a happy political Saturday night
JK Rowling isn't Scottish but she'd make a great First Minister.
Was the Bute House agreement ended by the abandonment of climate change targets or by their differences on how to respond to the Cass Report? There is more to the Scottish Green Party than a lot of people think.
That my be true BUT the Greens are meant to be a CONSERVATION organisation, not a political one, but if you are going to be a political organisation it's better if the co-leader doesn't go out rejecting science in a NON- CONSERVATION issue, when science is a keystone to Climate Change, a primary target for a CONSERVATION organisation.
The trouble with the greens is they do not understand the true cost of renewables like solar panels and incredible pollution they create. Wind farm carbon costs are huge recycling of blades highly power and environmentally costly
Solar panels are cheap to produce and should not be too expensive to buy.
Aliba😂 😂😂
humza useless couldnt run a corner shop
HE COULDN'T RUN A BATH
Well he can't ride a scooter , We've seen that 🤣🤣🤣🤣
If the situation in Scotland doesn't stabilise soon it's possible that the Scottish parliament will be proscribed and we will return to direct rule from Westminster indefinitely.
Nonsense
@@radleytube I don't see what's nonsensical about it. The Northern Ireland Assembly has been suspended 5 times now, including nearly 5 years between 2002 and 2007. If there continues to be protracted political instability in Scotland, Westminster might be forced to intervene and re-introduce direct rule.
Good, its a massive waste of money.

As an Englishman I really feel for the Scots, they should have their independence but with people like him and the previous leader they have little chance
Scotland is already independent - it was never taken away. The Union is a consensual arrangement that was reconfirmed by referendum less than a decade ago.
I just don't understand where this sinister 21st century craving to tear peoples and alliances apart has come from. It's not the direction the world should be heading in.
He is a stepping stone.
"have their independence" - despite the fact the majority voted against this. Also, the SNP want to join the EU - which is a funny sort of "independence".
