Lord Montpelier Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 3 minutes ago, Hagar the Horrible said: He did the right thing in ditching the Greens, but just went on a whataboutery attack on everybody else as deflection from the chaotic shitshow that would be a Broadway smash hit. he even attacked the Lib-dems for their coalition with the Conservatives, The Lib-dems took one for the Country and they took a hit but are back as a Party proper. If he just said, the coalition was at its natural end, and we wish to go forward on the issues that mater to all, He would have came across as in charge, But now he looks so out of his depth. Shame mammy has her own issues to seek. there is nobody left to give him a cuddle. I am split with predicting will this be the beginning of the end for Humza? Even if the Ross motion of a Vote of confidence just ends up as a parting shot, It will trigger a power struggle within. PH has just said that the Bute House agreement would have ensured he won a VONC. The Greens are off to discuss how they would vote should a confidence vote goes ahead. Remember they SNP have 63 seats, everybody else has 66. The Greens could tip the balance, but who is to say SNP members might trigger a cabalistic power shift to get Kate into power??? Humza said the Bute House agreement lasted 19 Liz Trusses' at least after 1 Liz Truss we got rid as it was a disaster, 1its taken Humza to be as bad as 18 other Liz Trusses' before we get rid. He wont be remembered well! You can't call her Mammy Some of the separatists don't like that. Yousaf is done. Just a matter of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It becomes a Nationalist/Unionist issue if the greens back the Tories, and Alba hold the deciding vote to draw it or not - I believe in the event of a draw the Presiding Officer by convention backs the government ? I disagree. If their is a vote of NC, then Humza is history, and there will be a proper election for the leadership of the SNP, not the Murrell's nodding dog.

TBH I like the sound of that, but losing a first minister in this way would be quite damaging. I'm not sure his critics in the party will go for that, Although, they could take after the tories with their ruthlessness of getting rid of ineffective leaders. I'd be right behind a Forbes leadership challenge TBH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey1874 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 As political reaction continues to come in from Holyrood and beyond, Stephen Flynn has insisted this is a "good day for the SNP". The SNP's Westminster leader said: “This is a good day for the SNP, it’s a good day for the Scottish government, and most important of all, it’s a good day for the people of Scotland. “What the first minister has shown today is leadership by acting in the national interest and putting the people of Scotland first.” Flynn added: “The people of Scotland of course elected us as a minority government and we are going to govern as a minority government, as we have done very successfully in the past. “I have got absolute confidence, based upon what the first minister said today that the government is going to be fully focused on the priorities of the people of Scotland.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malinga the Swinga Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 5 hours ago, manaliveits105 said: Humza Yousaf has ended the SNP’s coalition deal with the Scottish Greens after a stormy three year partnership. The First Minister called time on the partnership after a meeting with Green leaders. He will meet his Cabinet at 8.30am. Yousaf intervened after the Scottish Greens announced plans for a vote of their own members on the deal. Minority administration now Had to be done. They didn't deserve the power they had and, like the DUP during Johnson And May's governments, they thought they were untouchable. One of the few things Humza has got correct.

Australis Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 1 hour ago, Lord Montpelier said: Apparently if Yousaf loses the vote he has to resign. 28 days then to replace him. If they can't, election time. 28 days to find someone who says they will get independence and lead the donkeys on, only not to bother. It's what they do.

Gundermann Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) Some suggesting that the SNP shoudn't have abandoned the targets - what with the both the Tories and Labour doing u-turns on green policies, who would've made political capital out of failure to acheive them? I tend to agree. Not too chuffed with the Greens either, expecting their senior partners in govt to wait while they sort their house out. If the SNP start pandering to their conservative wing, they're broon breid IMO. Shame there's not a left-of-centre pro-indy party that stands to win seats...
