'Deciding to end power-sharing has consequences'

Scottish Green MSPs have confirmed they will back a vote of no confidence in First Minister Humza Yousaf.

Co-leaders Patrick Harvie and Lorna Slater said the sudden end showed the Scottish government's failure to prioritise environmental issues.

The decision means Mr Yousaf will struggle to win the vote, which has been tabled by the Conservative leader Douglas Ross.

The vote is expected to take place next week. The announcement by the Greens leaves the outcome on a knife edge.

The former SNP MSP Ash Regan, who is now an Alba Party MSP, could potentially decide Mr Yousaf's fate.
