The 'highly competent' young woman deserves to serve in the new Cabinet, says Record View.

Kate Forbes proved her ministerial competence when she was thrown in at the deep end in February 2020.

Many expected her to have a smooth path to the top until her campaign to become SNP leader in March last year brought sharp focus on her devout faith and its influence on her political life. That is unfair since Forbes has given a firm commitment that she will work to advance the rights of every community in Scotland.There is no doubting her capabilities for the economy brief she now holds – even if her views would have made her a bad fit as first minister.
