This week’s episode looks at the election of Humza Yousaf as the new leader of the Scottish National Party and the legacy of Nicola Sturgeon. Sam and Chern unpack the results, and discuss what may be next for the SNP as they begin a period without Salmond or Sturgeon at the helm for the first time in 20 years. How did Humza Yousaf win the election? And how did he fend off close rival Kate Forbes? What will be the legacy of Nicola Sturgeon as she leaves frontline Scottish politics? And what is next for the SNP as their poll ratings suffer a short-term slump? All these questions and more answered in this episode.
