Humza Yousaf Resigns as Scotland Leader

Humza Yousaf, the Scottish National Party (SNP) leader, resigned from his position after breaking the party's power-sharing agreement with the Green Party. This development comes as a setback for the SNP's independence efforts. John Swinney, an SNP MSP, is reportedly considering standing to become the first minister, and Kate Forbes, the former finance secretary, is also weighing up whether to run following a "groundswell of support". Swinney is currently the favorite to replace Yousaf, dubbed the "continuity candidate 2.0" due to his reputation as a consistent figure within the party.
