What a week in politics - and it's only Tuesday. It's the morning after Humza Yousaf sensationally announced he was stepping down as Scotland's first minister and SNP leader after little more than a year in the hot seat. It came as Mr Yousaf faced two votes of no confidence in the Scottish parliament following his decision to terminate the Bute House Agreement with the Scottish Greens. Mr Yousaf intends to remain in the roles until his successor is announced.
' Meanwhile, Scottish Labour is yet to confirm whether it intends to press ahead with its motion of no confidence against the Scottish government - which could force the entire cabinet to resign if passed. Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar said the motion will be kept 'under review' as his party keeps an eye on 'how the week pans out'. Mr Sarwar is continuing to call for a Scottish election so as the public can vote on who they want as first minister.
