Humza Yousaf has become the new leader of the SNP, but only just. Only half the party want him, and many others are not happy that a man who has not been seen as truly successful, would now lead the party. Others are very happy about this, the Labour Party, the Conservatives, of course Alex Salmond's ALBA Party, and no doubt the mentally unstable Greens also. The population are looking the other way and hoping this is not happening.
Humza is seen as a continuity candidate, that is, he has been forced into this place by the 'powers behind the throne,' and this to continue Nicola's programme, much of which was manifestly absurd.
So, we expect little obvious change, lots of votes drifting away, possibly a rise in ALBA, and independence drifting far off the agenda for a long time.
Maybe Nicola was a 'Special Branch' agent after all?
