How many more difficult days were there for SNP’s Humza Yousaf?

On the 6th April, BBC Scotland had this:

How many more difficult days for SNP’s Humza Yousaf?

over a picture of the new FM looking troubled. Reports of his inability to lead were everywhere in a media feeding frenzy.

Nearly two months later, it’s all quiet. In polls, support for independence has climbed back to a range from around 44% to over 50% as it was in early January and support for the SNP has climbed back to the low 40s, as it was before he was elected.

In April, he was characterised by the Times as ‘incompetent and weak’ and with a net approval rating of -17 but by the end of May it was -9, behind Anas Sarwar at +6 and far better than Ross, Sunak or Starmer.

In the last month, the same media outlets which criticised him have moved on to other interests. They have seen him coping with the limited capabilities of Ross and Sarwar at FM Questions and no longer smell blood.

The answer to BBC Scotland is then, around 50.

  3. The Welsh one gets reported because he is Labour. The SNP get ignored by MSM but not ignored by the voters. The voters highly support the SNP + because they have so many better policies. Westminster Gov is so corrupt. Killing off the citizens by their unlawful policies. Eternal war. The unionists will be out without any doubt. Independence voters just need to go out and vote every election. A higher turnout. Take another person too. March to the Polling Station or Ballot Box.

    The Tories are killing off thei4 own supporters. Male and over seventy. The times are a’ changing, A GE coming soon. Independence supporters need to get out an£ vote. For Independence Parties. 1, 2, 3. To get rid of the opposition, Spread the word.
