- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- Humza Yousaf will refuse to enter an electoral pact with Alex Salmond's party that could have seen the SNP step aside in some Scottish seats, Sky News understands.
The Alba Party, headed by Mr Salmond, is likely to have the deciding vote in a key vote of no confidence in the SNP first minister at Holyrood this week.
Mr Salmond told Sky News' Trevor Phillips his party would be "prepared to assist" Mr Yousaf in a no-confidence vote "as long as independence is restored as the key priority of the Scottish government".

These politicians are self serving. All about "power" - never about citizens.
Plz he needs to go we didn’t vote for him he done nothing for Scotland 🏴
Same as salmond, krankie and now useless. They've done absolutely nothing beneficial for the country. Other than enriching themselves.
Groupie
It’s a prank right ? 😂
"HY hasn't done anything for us"?
Well .....but he's certainly doing stuff to us!
He back's up the muzzy's in Palestine, whilst muzzling his underling's at home.
I pray he'd join his family outta Scotland if he's that bothered about them
What's the threat to women and girls he's talking about?
‘Twa cheeks of the same erse. Imagine how good Scotland could be if we had government that didn’t bang on about independence, and focused on making the country better.
Yeah, but that’s not going to happen with Westminster based parties,so who to vote for?
But that is what independence does , it makes Scotland look after its own country all of
The facts are most of Scotland Inc holyrood is a lie, westmonster runs it. This is the uk lie...independence is normal...how many countries that left the British empire asked to come back, and remember all those countries were told they were to poor, to stupid and to weak to leave the union.
Well where have we heard this from...

@finlaygilmour7492 All parties receive cash directly or indirectly from dodgy sources, it's a matter of the degree of influence that that cash exerts. A few thousand in the right place can be worth a lot more than millions thrown into the wind.
Disappointed to see Salmond backing Yousaf. SNP were better when he was in charge, he did fight well for Scotland under a dominating Westminster. Scotland lost its chance for independence when Brown undermined the will of the people putting doubts in supporters of independence minds, then the Queen got involved by making doubtful remarks. SNP then wanted to be part of the EU….. wtf why? Look at the mess in Europe now with the great reset moving half the world into Europe and here. The lot need to go, the people need to fight against this mass immigration. There is no one fighting for the white indigenous people. We are invaded by the immigrants from Africa and the East. No one to vote for here in Scotland.
Where in that interview does he say that he's backing Yousaf?
@@louisehogg8472”prepared to assist” 🤷♂️
@Davie. the 3 conditions he and Ash have mentioned involve action not £.
Our glorious FM is not having a lot of luck with ginger women lately,Ash Reegan,JK Rowling,and I wouldn't trust Alex Salmond with my grandmother and she's been dead for over 40 years.

Sorry for your Grandmother

Alex Salmond- The jury found him innocent.
@@JamJam0189 A jury found O J Simpson innocent as well.
SNP's answer to everything "Independence!". How to deal with Russia, "Independence!" How to cure the common cold "Independence!"
Sounds more like Stuart McDonald's answer to (possible) Independence: "Russia"!
If he supports yousaf,he will assist in building a Muslim enclave in Scotland. Don't let it happen Scotland.
We need people who stand up for us , with the excess deaths in our society and unprecedented immigration, get these sorted out some brave white people!!!!
He's a weasel, slip in back door then turn on Humza like the Greens he cannot be trusted
@@johncheetham4607 Same in Britain with London major, we're in a right mess, we want him out. Shall find out this Thursday when people vote, I hope to God he's voted out !!! Good luck with getting Yousef out, they're birds if a feather 🪶🪶🇬🇧😘
What a load of nonsense for god's sake get real
It's coming your way.
Alex Salmon trying to edge his way back in.
Oily man.
Salmond is for scotland. Sturgeon has hidden the evidence to prove salmond was innocent. She refused to release it.
Vile man
Only if the people's stupid enough to let him.
What did he do .
Crooks stick together !
Like sunak and starmer
There is something indecent with this horse trading trying to keep their broken ship afloat and not really worried about getting their passengers the electorate in to something safer.
The Bad Ship SNP is hulled below the water line and their toxic payload is leaking out everywhere, destroying all life.
Precisely why Alex slotted in a reminder that ALBA ARE preparing for an election (even if other parties may be negotiating to avoid one).
As Watertight as Their Ferries !
@@philiprufus4427how many ferries have alba contracted private companies to build
@@louisehogg8472he defends that racist Pakistani then he's just another traitor
What is Salmond trying to do, he knows nobody wants useless but is prepared to help him. He is a traitor!
Both are rattle snakes that will do what is best for them!
😂😂😂 behave
Angela Reyner Is perhaps a snake
Suella Braverman Is maybe a snake
Catherine Middleton Is maybe a snake
Definitely rattle 🐍's they rattle on every time they get given airtime 😂😂😂
Salmond trying to slither in the back door. Don't think that'll work. The eyes of Scotland willl be on him and won't allow it!
its difficult to say if we'd vote salmond back in, theres the whole sexual misconduct case that happened a while ago which could have completely soured his reputation beyond repair, but Salmond has been the only first minister to follow through with an actual vote which could make the die hard independence supporters extremely happy to vote him in again
Sexual misconduct. The snp withheld evidence . And there now being found out. Alex has fought for scotland . And really who else could . Humza. ?
He is right, too much time wasted on gender equality, not important issues that affects the vast majority of the people, like health, housing and jobs,
Can't expect anything else from a party full of queers 🙄
SNP GOVERNMENT HAVE HAD 16 YEARS
THEY ARE CURRENTLY UNDER POLICE INVESTIGATION
Easy for a privileged person to say, who isnt a part of a marginalised minority
@@Caitlin7142 exactly minorities
Alec is hoping the SNP stay afloat long enough to pay his £3M claim against the party.
Get Hamza OUT OUT OUT!!!
Always thought Alex Salmondwas intelligent but if he backs Useless
he is thicker than I thought
He's obsessed with Independence he wants to be in the history books,
Salmond, aka the " Octopus," Would sup with the Devil to keep the useless SNP in power. Best ignore.
Humza the limpet won't budge.
Oh he will. His ego won't be able to take it. He'll resign and play the racism card.
I've always had a great deal of time for Alex Salmond. That said any association with Hamza Yousaf I feel is a big mistake.
Yousaf is rotten to the core.
SALMOND NO BETTER THAN HUMZA
Get the hint the public don’t want him
...by calling him a taxi.
I thought that bloke was in prison...
He should be in prison.
Salmond, I wondered where the bad smell was coming from!
The mogrant boats
Definitely not taking advantage of the situation 😂
If he supports dumza then Scotland will lose credibility throughout. Keep out of it and stop playing games with Scots.
An effective bit of NOT being pushed into providing sound bites that could be spun in a damaging way, I thought. Experience is showing! 😂
musklims should npot be in charge of scotland england ireland or wales

Down with the failure.The scottish people do not want them get them out
Five milion scotts . Many people 👏👏👏
Salmond spotting the opportunity to further his career. Do we get rid of one opportunist to be plagued with another???
It's like watching house of cards
The Eel Salmon. His favourite nut? Almond. When he felt quizzical he'd oft self-exsalmoned! And one of his favourite bites? Smoked salmon!!!
For anyone in the slightest doubt, this shows just how little Alex Salmond really cares about Scotland.
David getting he cares more about Scotland than unionists
He'd befriend the Devil if it helped him garner some power or influence....
Independence will never ever happen. Get over it Alex.
Why not ???

Who’d have thought that Salmond would hold all the power with his 1 MP?!
For pities sake- NO.
Alex Salmond (not an MSP) cannot give advice to Ash Regan on how to do things as this would be interferring in her role as a democratically elected official voted in by the Scottish electorate. If he does it could be seen as trying to corrupt an elected member of the Scottish parliament and face a criminal charge and Ash Regan should consider this possibility. It is a pity Ash Regan defected to Alba as she would now be on course to becoming the Scottish First Minister. Ash Regan as First Minister would certainly mean independence as she does not mess around and gets straight to the point unlike ALL other MSPs.
I think Salmond/Regan will make a deal with Yousaf to prioritize "independence". (Salmond and his Alba party don't give a monkey's about safety of women and girls or education or anything else.) Yousaf loves being in power and will be happy to agree to Regan's demands. I suspect Regan will vote against the no confidence motion and keep the SNP and Yousaf afloat.
I believe Humzas own party will be responsible for voting him out, don't take their votes for granted Humza
Birds of a feather
Scottish salmon leaves a bad taste in ones mouth
They want jobs with top money
Why is this guy even talking......his time is gone.
Gone with the wind .
Yusuf has behaved disgracefully. He must go now.
"self identification"? Delusion he means.
This was on the cards as soon as Ash Regan's unique position was made clear. We've seen the Green tail wagging the SNP dog, now Alba will have an extraordinary veto on SNP policy if Salmond does a rescue deal with Useless. Alba aren't as nuts as the Greens - they are at least opposed to the gender nonsense - but I fear they are still putting independence way before all the other chronic problems that Scotland has. Could be wrong - might actually inject a bit of sense into the SNP.
Independence independence independence. That’s all the snp and Scotland parliamentary talk about. It should be what the people of Scotland want. Better run government nhs. Drugs, housing cost of living. Etc etc. I’m sure Independence is the last thing on the people of Scotland minds
User to get rid Westminster yes that is on there minds
Snake in the grass ,the man who gave us sturgeon.
Dumb and Dumber!!!
Salmon trying to sneak in.
Go yirsel Ek ,get in, then get Humza to frock..
Get out from uk 😢😮😮
Good grief, what a pair.
Assist him out if the door while still lying on the bed waiting for his secretary😊😊😊😊
Tony BLinken ?
Angela Mitchel
Abolish the Pretendy Parly in Edinburgh and return Scotland to proper government-- London-based.
😂🤪
Peter chaloner abolish this fraud of this pretend union and start jailing unionist in Scotland for crimes against the Scottish people
Two failures make a success?
That’s the kiss of death for Humza .
After the protest of the people Alex Salmond is prepared to ignore us and assist Humza Yusaf well he can go along with Yusaf, a typical independence lover ignore the people and go against their wishes.
Salmond is a turn coat
Another double header.
Why would the SNP not make a pact with Alba. They share much of the same aims, and don't have all the bonkers policies of the greens.
he will do anything it takes to keep muslim [power
The record got stuck. Alex Salmon just kept skipping back to the beginning.
Salmond massively outperformed Useless as First Minister, and is a decent and well-rounded individual. Decide for yourselves which one you'd rather bump into in a pub .
Snp are making themselves a right laughing stock 😅
Salmond will tell her to vote for her x party just because they want to leave the uk
Oh just go away Alex Salmond!
Alex Salmond ?
It never happened
It was a sleepy cuddle
It was consensual THAT Alex Salmond ?
No worries, Yousaf will hand the Non-Local baton over to the Labour Chief.
Trying to get position as first minister it's all about him and not for the good of Scotland a disgrace
Weird how comments disappear while the lies are aloud to stay. No agenda to see here.
Out out out....
Independence? What about the calmac ferry crisis? Prioritise please
Why !!!! Let him go. ...
" A People that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices "
G. Orwell
Salmond is a wily old campaigner, far quicker and more astute than Sturgeon never mind Useless, but he has only a slight toe hold in Holyrood: that’s in the form of Ash Regan who resigned the SNP party whip for her own self interest. She, like most of them couldn’t care less about the ordinary folk of Scotland.
Alex Salmon better no help humza !!! Or Alba will be going down with S.N.P....
Don’t start me on the housing ffs this country needs help and quick the whole system is fuked even my wee brain knows a few ways of helping
Well he would, wouldn't he! Just another Follower of the SNP mantra. Yesterdays man, of no use to Scotland now!
And what does that say about Salmond? How corrupt is he?
Backing Yousaf how to kill a dead career
More faces than big Ben 🙄
just say yes or no for god sake
Salmond the slimmiest out of all of them!
100 % behind alex salmond..this will put independence back in rhe snp priorities.
Snp have got to use to its easy wages...time fer them to aim for independence and nothing less..
How about fixing the mess they have made before worrying about independance
And has already forced one of them to say "we CAN'T possibly agree to progress Independence, protect women and girls, and do practical, useful stuff!", by the sounds of it.
Showing up that their Independence talk HAS just been election 🥕🥕 recently, right enough.
Keep Salmon well out another bad fish that’s cost the taxpayers paying for his court cases .
Salmond still able to take tax payers money, his best achievement.
Wee Salmond - totally irrelevant!
