his arrest is another headache for the new first minister, humza yousaf.olice investigation but clearly it's a very serious matter indeed. have you suspended him from the party? him from the party or the group? i've said already that people are innocent until proven guilty. it follows the arrest and release without charge of the party's former chief executive, peter murrell, who is married to nicola sturgeon, at their home in glasgow. with police also seizing a luxury motorhome in fife. so what led up to this inquiry? from 2017 until 2020, the snp raised nearly £667,000 to campaign for independence. questions arose when it emerged the party had just under £97,000 in the bank at the end of 2019. and injune 2021, mr murrell loaned the party around £107,000 of his own money. this morning's arrest happened here, at colin beattie�*s home in his midlothian constituency. this house in dalkeith is the last building which humza yousaf wanted to be the focus of attention today. he has inherited a party in crisis but he has also taken over a government facing immense

of course it is true that humza yousaf in the end| that humza yousaf in the end accepted being the continuity sturgeon. ms forde said no, we need change. despite the fact that humza yousaf had the overwhelming support of the public declarations of snp parliamentarians, both in london and in edinburgh, he onlyjust won the contest. so to that extent at least, we might ask whether or not if indeed the odds on regime of nicola sturgeon was perhaps a little less clear is whether you want to follow there may be the outcome might have been different, who knows? you there may be the outcome might have been different, who knows?— been different, who knows? you look at these rooms _ been different, who knows? you look at these rooms all— been different, who knows? you look at these rooms all the _ been different, who knows? you look at these rooms all the time _ been different, who knows? you look at these rooms all the time and - been different, who knows? you look at these rooms all the time and i - at these rooms all the time and i wonder if you think the support of independence is in sync with snp

_ i mention the idea of a disjuncture, we other disjuncture is that humza yousaf is the first ministerthe scottish national party, he has to take any political head going from these —— political hit, but he was not the leader of the treasurer at the time that these things happen, he cannot intervene in the police investigation, he cannot nobody intervene in the elaboration, but he has to take the hit as it comes. 0ne insider described him as being very front facing on this, determined to carry on as first minister and challenge the things that face as first minister. and do what he can with regards to the crisis that has frankly engulfed his party. but it is that dreadful disjunction as far as he is concerned that he has to take the first match but he cannot directly intervene, he is in play has to hope that a diver dies down or goes away, or it can be laid particularly at the door of his predecessor and the predecessor administration. i think you will do so nicola sturgeon to some extent at least in the short—term, it will help that she had to do the same thing with regard to her pred

humza yousaf has a big problem.as elected two weeks ago and this is hanging around his neck like an albatross. what he should be doing is doubling, tripling, quadrupling down on doing things that shows he has his own man and this looses it in ink himself with what has gone on but he does not have to sack nicola sturgeon. —— and disassociating himself. he needs to dump some of the daft schemes and a variety of usually green influenced policies that are deeply unpopular. get rid of the greens from the coalition. certainly self identification needs to go. he should chart a different policy course and make clear he has his own man and he has not shown any inclination to do this but he needs to if the party is to survive. i'd that video was from march 2021 and you formed the alba party one month before that. did you give any direct warnings? nicola sturgeon and peter murrell deny any wrongdoing but did you have concerns? right back to 2014 when i was leaving office, the vote for independence reached 45% and support for t
