Edinburgh reacts to Humza Yousaf’s resignation
Well, now he's got plenty of time to learn to ride his scooter properly and leave politics to the adults. See ya.
Keith Young
Everyone having street parties and when the SNP fold, a large party in George Square. It’s been a great day for Scots!
Bobby Paterson
If you get rid of the SNP government, welcome back to tolls, prescription charges, higher council tax and nose in the trough. Good day for Scotland indeed!
David Cathcart
Glad he has resigned; now get the SNP out.
Mark McDonald
Thanks for popping in. Nikolay Berry-Smith
Thank goodness; he was taking Scotland to a dark place and I am not referring to Indy but his continual rhetoric towards certain parts of our Scottish Society which could lead to serious consequences within our local communities. Robert Mcneill
Shot himself in the foot, but those Greens had to go as they were the tail wagging the dog. No candidate I've seen mentioned fills me with any hope for Scotland.
Gordon Macdonald
The SNP were done the minute Nicola Sturgeon decided they would hop into bed with the Greens. It was always going to end in tears and she jumped before it sank.
Paul Mc Dougall
Hopefully the SNP can get back on track.
Mark Welsh
Like others have said, I'd love independence but its not a priority atm. The constant bickering and the damage the SNP have caused can’t go on anymore. They are not any better than that lot down in London, but people need to understand that Labour will bring in all the things the SNP were slammed for – they are doing It now running Edinburgh Council.
Scott Broon
Hurrah! That’s the best piece of news I’ve heard since he took up the FM post! Perhaps now, with the correct leader, we can get back on track and finally achieve Scotland’s independence, which we all so deserve!
Morag Mackintosh
Time for an election now. Independence can wait for now. It’s time for change, let the voters choose now and get stability back into our beautiful country.
Polly Pitman
The next step now is for the vote of no confidence in the SNP to result in them being kicked out. There is nobody in the SNP capable of leading Scotland. We need a government that can prove they can deal with the day to day issues the country faces rather than being wrapped up in independence (which the majority of people still do not want) or ideological stuff that only impacts on a minority of the population.
David Henderson
Humza Yousaf shoots himself in both feet, quits like a petulant child but blames everyone else. I laughed so hard I spilled my tea onto my desk. He's comedy gold.
Jeff Nichols
The man talks more about Gaza than Glasgow… let him go and the rest of the SNP.
Louis Easton
We need to get rid of the SNP period, need change and someone who knows their left hand from their right hand.
Darren Wilson
