IAN Blackford has apologised to the Scottish Greens for the handling of the termination of the Bute House Agreement.

leader said the way in which the First Minister ended the power-sharing deal with the Greens could have been handled better.“I think we could have handled this in a different way, and I’m sure the First Minister would say that as well.”"I would say to our colleagues in the Greens that I’ve heard their anger and upset and I understand it," he said.

“I would say to them today, don’t throw that away this week. Show your faith and trust in the First Minister. Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
