Commenting on the end of the Bute House Agreement Scottish Labour Deputy Leader Jackie Baillie said:
“This chaotic and incompetent government is falling apart before our eyes while Scots pay the price.
“Humza Yousaf is too weak to hold his own government together and he is too weak to deliver for Scotland.
“Three years into the Bute House Agreement the promises the SNP and Greens made have been torn to shreds.
“While Humza Yousaf is ditching the Bute House Agreement, he cannot escape the fact that it’s the SNP that has left almost one in six Scots on NHS waiting lists, gutted public services and failed to tackle the cost-of-living crisis.
“None of this changes the fact that it is SNP failures that have left Scots with higher bills, higher taxes, fewer jobs and a health care service on the brink.
“The collapse of this ill-fated marriage was inevitable but Scotland needs an entirely new government.
“Only Scottish Labour can deliver the change Scotland needs. ”
