No I posted saying "Why is LT acting like pop-psychologist Judy James " because it was funny that you were doing it, except I used an image instead of typing the first part.

Now it's just gotten silly.

I don't think he'll last long at this point, he's too closely linked to those now under scrutiny.

Yousaf is avoiding questions
he can speak about it, under legal terms

Meghan Gallacher from the Scottish Conservatives immediately focuses on the "scandal"
engulfing the SNP.

She says: "The SNP is in total meltdown."

The MSP accuses Yousaf of "not doing the right thing" by refusing to suspend his "former
mentors" while the investigation is ongoing.

She accuses Yousaf of being a "continuity first minister" being led by "the extremist
Greens" and she asks if anyone believes he will close the attainment gap.

She welcomes the delay to the Deposit Return Scheme and she asks if the SNP remains
in debt to Peter Murrell and when it intends to repay that loan.

yep

Scottish Conservative deputy leader Meghan Gallacher told Humza Yousaf to tackle the "scandal" in his party and accused the first minister of "tinkering around with Nicola Sturgeon's failing policy agenda"

Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar accused Yousaf of "not running a functioning government"

Scottish Lib Dem leader Alex Cole-Hamilton said the government is in "total paralysis"

On the day that Humza Yousaf delivered his first major speech to the Scottish Parliament
as first minister, the most memorable comment attributed to him was that he does “not
believe”
that the SNP is operating in a criminal way. There’s a phrase for the party’s next
election campaign.

The SNP "will be in trouble" unless the leadership takes "decisive action" on its internal affairs, former leadership candidate Kate Forbes has warned.

Speaking to the BBC, Ms Forbes said people were watching the SNP "with astonishment" and party finance claims were "mind-blowing".

She said there was "time to sort it out" but "continuity won't cut it".

The SNP has ordered a review of how the party is managed following recent controversy over its finances.
