When you really think about, 2024 seems more like a fever dream than anything else. Remember Rishi Sunak's rain-drenched resignation? Ed Davey's bizarre attention grabbing stunts? Humza Yousaf's abrupt, self-inflicted implosion? Play along with our team of politics reporters in our end-of-year quiz to see if you've been switched on or turned off.

In 2023, Humza Yousaf made history when he was elected as Scotland's first minister, making him the first Muslim leader of a Western democracy. Yet, that term was cut short this past spring after Yousaf was forced to resign from the post, as his coalition government fell apart.Since then, Yousaf has remained a backbench member of the Scottish Parliament.However, in this exclusive interview with Zeteo in London, Humza Yousaf announces that he will not be seeking re-election to the Scottish Parliament in 2026, telling Mehdi that it's time for him to “step away from frontline politics.”“I think the time is right for me to step down, step away from frontline politics and make way for the next generation of elected members,” Yousaf says to Mehdi.In this wide-ranging interview, the former leader of Scotland discusses his fallout with the Green Party earlier this year, which ultimately led to the collapse of his coalition government, saying that terminating the power-sharing agreement with the Greens was, “the right thing to have done.”“My successor is no longer encumbered with that deal, [he] can make decisions in policy that he wants to take forward in our country's interest without having to negotiate and compromise with the Greens. They can do that on an issue by issue basis, which I think is the best way to do it,” Yousaf says.Yousaf also discusses the Middle East with Mehdi, telling him that the UK Labour Party is complicit in Israel's genocide on Gaza.“There's no doubt in my mind at all they are complicit. And I hope and pray that I live to see the day that all of those who are complicit are held accountable for these crimes,” Yousaf tells Mehdi.Mehdi asks Yousaf about his feud with billionaire Elon Musk, with the former first minister reiterating why he thinks Musk is, “one of the most dangerous men on the planet.”Yousaf also sounds the alarm about reports that Musk has been considering donating to the hard-right Reform UK party (Musk has denied these reports).Watch the full exclusive interview above to hear Mehdi and Yousaf also discuss the rise of Islamophobia and the UK race riots from this past summer, his party's catastrophic performance in the UK's general election this year, and the Pakistani government's continued imprisonment of former prime minister Imran Khan.

Co-leader of the Scottish Greens Lorna Slater sits down with Podlitical, talking about her journey to Scotland, and ahead of the 10th anniversary of the 2014 Scottish independence referendum, shares her memories of the referendum and how she got engaged in Scottish politics. Lorna Slater shares how she feels having autism is an advantage in the job, how her experience with the Deposit Return Scheme left her with a "deep cynicism" of the UK Government, plus the collapse of the Bute House agreement, and how Humza Yousaf's resignation was about "brutal" parliamentary math. As the next Holyrood election begins to be considered, Slater discusses how it's "hard to imagine" supporting the Scottish Government's next budget without the "green stuff".For a range of political interviews, subscribe to Podlitical on BBC Sounds.

In this episode we begin by reflecting on why there have, as yet , been no far-right riots in Scotland. Is it because, as George Kerevan has suggested in The National, that the development of a civic , progressive Scottish "nationalism" has created a different social/political landscape? We also consider his point that a continuing independence project is central to combatting racism.Lesley reflects on the response to her call for independence supporters to turn out in solidarity against the planned "Pro UK" rally in Glasgow on September the 7th.Meanwhile Elon Musk has launched a vitriolic attack on Humza Yousaf with spurious claims of racism.

Humza Yousaf, who resigned as Scotland's First Minister in May, was the first Muslim to lead a Western democracy. Sayeeda and David talk to him about his faith, his identity and growing up in a Jewish neighbourhood. He talks movingly about his in-laws in Gaza, and how knowing that condemning Hamas's actions on October 7th could have had fatal repercussions for his family.

Martin Geissler sits down with Scottish Greens co-leader Patrick Harvie. The Scottish Greens were part of the Scottish Government, until the then-First minister Humza Yousaf collapsed the Bute House Agreement. They had power, they had exposure, but has that helped their cause? In this audio version of the BBC Scotland Sunday Show interview, Martin asks Harvie about independence, a post-government world for his party, and how he thinks they'll do in the election.Part of a series of interviews with party leaders over the course of the general election campaign.

Lisa Cameron was born in Glasgow and grew up in East Kilbride, the constituency she now represents. After three elections under the SNP, she memorably defected to the Scottish Conservatives in 2023. At the time, Humza Yousaf described it as the least surprising news he'd had since becoming first minister.  On the podcast, Lisa tells Katy about the need for increased investment into mental health provision, her defection from the SNP to the Tories and why Scottish independence is a failed experiment.

What can we expect from the new First Minister of Scotland John Swinney? As he officially becomes First Minister this week, following no other candidates putting forward their names for leadership, what might be the priorities and challenges of the new John Swinney administration? With a familiar cabinet and the addition of Kate Forbes as the Deputy First Minister, will it be enough to satisfy the half of the party that backed her against Humza Yousaf last year? The team take a look at what we learnt so far about the SNP's priorities this week, including the FM's first FMQs, and how Swinney's time at the top might unfold.

Jacob Reynolds joins Tom Slater and Fraser Myers to discuss the London mayoral race, the fall of Humza Yousaf, the bigoted brats of Columbia and the Irish migration crisis.

The pressing question this week is: If a T-Rex played Taylor Swift at chess who would win? An octopus has offered to referee, but only if it is paid in food stamps. ‘An expert' has suggested that the T'Rex may have been a little dim…so Giles wonders what or who constitutes dim in the 21st century...?Could the demise of Humza Yousaf be down to the Scottish Nationalists losing the culture wars…when asked for their opinion the great Scottish public replied “Get te f**k!” It turns out that it is not only opinionated columnists who need the culture wars, the Tory party do too, and possibly the Daily Mail. Bland, over processed and will do you no good – Taylor Swift or supermarket bread? The bread of course, but some, may have reached Taylor Swift saturation point. Hosted on Acast.

One week ago, Humza Yousaf, first minister of Scotland and leader of the Scottish National Party, terminated the power-sharing deal with the Scottish Greens. There had been mounting pressure on both Yousaf's leadership and ending the coalition, but the eventual timing of the termination caused the now former leader to appear panicked and triggered a Scottish government crisis.On Monday, just after 13 months in office, Yousaf resigned, ahead of two no confidence votes. This morning John Swinney announced his leadership to be Scotland's next first minister, meanwhile this afternoon Kate Forbes has announced that she will not be entering the leadership race.But the SNP was deeply fractured when Yousaf inherited it, would a successor be able to unite it?Rachel Cunliffe, associate political editor, is joined by Chris Deerin, Scotland editor, and Freddie Hayward, political correspondent.

El ministro principal de Escocia, Humza Yousaf, dimitió esta semana para evitar una moción de censura en el parlamento tras la ruptura de su coalición con el partido ecologista Scottish Greens. Yousaf llevaba poco más de un año en el cargo, desde finales de marzo de 2023. Llegó hasta ahí de rebote después de las primarias que siguieron a la renuncia de Nicola Sturgeon, que había ganado las elecciones escocesas dos años antes. Yousaf era bien conocido por los escoceses ya que había ocupado varias carteras en la época de Sturgeon. Se le consideraba un colaborador suyo muy cercano, por lo que la militancia decidió entregarle el liderazgo del partido para que hubiese continuidad Fuera de Escocia su figura llamó la atención por su juventud y por el hecho de que es hijo de inmigrantes pakistaníes de confesión musulmana, pero ninguna de esas tres cosas ha pesado lo más mínimo en su año al frente del Gobierno. Tampoco han influido en las circunstancias que han rodeado su espantada. Yousaf se considera un patriota escocés y es partidario de celebrar de nuevo un referéndum de independencia, pero el Partido Nacional Escocés (SNP) va a menos. Los escoceses se han resignado al Brexit y el debate público discurre por derroteros distintos. En definitiva, que la ruptura de la coalición con los Verdes se ha debido razones más prosaicas, concretamente a desacuerdos por la política medioambiental. El caso de Yousaf es, políticamente, un ejemplo de que es mejor saltar antes de que te empujen. Yousaf prefirió romper con los Verdes e inmolarse antes de aceptar las exigencias de sus socios, que se cifraban en que, de aquí a 2030, Escocia debía reducir el 75% en las emisiones de dióxido de carbono sobre la base de 1990. Para 2045 esa reducción tendría que ser del 100%. El Gobierno escocés hizo números y simplemente no le salían. Para conseguir el objetivo impuesto por los ecologistas habría que instalar 80.000 bombas de calor para sustituir a las calderas de gas. En la carretera supondría la instalación de 24.000 puntos de recarga y acelerar la renovación del parque móvil mediante subsidios. Para los agricultores locales no habría consuelo ya que buena parte de su maquinaria aún carece de alternativas eléctricas. Respecto a la aviación, hubiese supuesto el fin de aeropuertos como el de Edimburgo o el de Glasgow, que juntos mueven unos 18 millones de pasajeros anualmente, tres veces la población de aquella región. Con puertos como el de Aberdeen hubiese sucedido algo similar. Yousaf sabía que aquello era un suicidio que costaría las elecciones de 2026 al SNP y ha preferido marcharse. No estaba, eso sí, en su mejor momento. El SNP ha perdido atractivo y, con él, el nacionalismo escocés asediado por una investigación judicial sobre su financiación. Los laboristas de Keir Starmer están en alza en todo el Reino Unido y una parte nada despreciable del voto nacionalista podría irse para allá. La crisis que atraviesa el Partido Conservador tiene como contrapartida que los nacionalistas escoceses pierdan atractivo entre el electorado, algo que ya se veía venir desde hace tiempo. El nacionalismo en Escocia es un movimiento esencialmente de izquierdas y sólo funciona a pleno rendimiento cuando los tories reinan en Westminster. Ese reinado concluirá este mismo año y sus efectos se sienten ya en todo el país. Pues bien, para hablar sobre este tema que, como vemos tiene varias y muy interesantes aristas, tenemos hoy en La ContraCrónica a Andrea Martos, nuestra corresponsal en el Reino Unido que está de paso por Madrid. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Contra la Revolución Francesa”… https://amzn.to/4aF0LpZ · “Hispanos.

The search for a new First Minister of Scotland has started - the third in three years - after Humza Yousaf announced his resignation yesterday in an emotional speech.Yousaf says he "underestimated" the hurt caused by his decision to scrap the SNP's power-sharing agreement with the Scottish Greens - a move that prompted two no-confidence votes.The polls suggest there is something more fundamental going on - a belief that ministers here in Edinburgh are simply not delivering the basics, like a health service that works and schools with high standards, even though it is they and not ministers in Westminster, who are in charge of those policies.Today's Nick Robinson spends the day in Holyrood reflecting on the fall out of another emotional resignation by another Scottish first minister.Listen to Today on BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds: 6-9am weekdays and 7-9am on Saturdays.

Today, we look Humza Yousaf stepping down as Scotland's first minister. In an emotional resignation speech, Yousaf said he had “clearly underestimated" the hurt he'd caused the Scottish Greens by ending the SNP's power-sharing deal with them in the way he did. As a result, the SNP leader was facing two votes of no confidence later this week. Yousaf says he will stay on as first minister until the Scottish National Party chooses his replacement.Who will become the new first minister? What does this mean for Scottish independence?

And the inevitable question - could it affect when the Prime Minister calls an election?In Scotland, it's set to be a bumpy week for Humza Yousaf. Laura's been speaking with his former boss and head of the Alba party, Alex Salmond, who's suggested his party could offer support to the SNP.

Dan Poulter has defected to Labour, and Wes Streeting says more disaffected Tories are welcome. Humza Yousaf is walking a tightrope as he faces two votes of no-confidence.

After two and a half years in government together, Humza Yousaf has terminated the SNP's governing pact with the Scottish Greens. The decision was rubber stamped at a hastily arranged meeting of the Scottish cabinet on Thursday morning. It preempts a vote by rank-and-file Green members on whether to walk away from Yousaf's government after he ditched a key climate target. In response, The Scottish Conservatives have tabled a vote of no confidence vote. And the Yousaf might very well lose it, now the Greens are out of the government. What will this mean for the first minister? Katy Balls speaks to Lucy Dunn, Iain Macwhirter and Fraser Nelson.  Produced by Oscar Edmondson.
