I WAS very sorry to see the very short-term thinking of Humza Yousaf in your reporting (Humza Yousaf: Voting Scottish Greens at General Election…

The First Minister has claimed that votes cast for Scottish Greens at the General Election would be wasted). Far from being a “wasted vote”, the public should see the upcoming General Election as the greatest opportunity yet to vote Green.seats. This is a fantastic opportunity to put clear Green water between us and a party who are struggling to stay ahead in the polls.

For the First Minister to now use the broken democracy of Westminster’s voting system to shore up his own support is extremely disappointing. Humza Yousaf is happy to describe Scottish Green Party votes as “wasted” in the General Election this year, but without those same party’s votes he’d have no coalition to govern in Scotland.

I don’t believe this SNP will deliver indy. It has no plan. It fails to use the political weapons it has. It fails to recognise omelettes can’t be made without breaking eggs. It’s operating in a cosy political world and is intent on adhering to Westminster’s rules, which mitigate against we Scots and any prospect of independence.
