And he’s off. The race starts now, but can the government hold it together?

    Humza was very explicit in wanting to continue with the progressive slanted agenda. Forbes can’t even commit to sounding like a centrist. She absolutely will lead with her right wing interpretation of Christianity.

      Humza has resigned. The party will now decide. With plenty of conservatives (small c) in Alba, and the more radical left in SGP, whoever wins will be the moderate of the party - whatever that looks like. My money is on her saying her more fundamentalist views will be whip free and up to each MSP

        It’ll end up being Swinney. Part of the inner clique and the greens will accept him.

          Agreed. If he wants it, it’s his job.

        She’d be having any social policy vote be whip-free at that rate, and may as well not be a leader. Presbos are complete nuts.
