Investigation is continuing just now, that has been difficult for the snp, hard for people to move past that. There was a lack of progress, of course, on independence. A number of people who have criticised a strategy that Nicola Sturgeon pursued, that Hamza Yusuf pursued as well, her successor, and of course Nicola Sturgeon was such a successful politician. She resigned quite suddenly and was replaced by Hamza Yusuf as her predecessor, who had a short time as First Minister and of course, he did not have the support at holyrood in the chamber i do not have enough mps to get things through. So there were a minority government, they had lost their Partnership Support so he had to go.

Its the 3rd of february, 2021, with new variants in the country, our schools are shut and our borders are open. The number of people getting a jab reaches ten million, but the head of test and trace strikes a note of caution. The big concern and worry is that the virus mutates and succeeds in finding a form that can escape the vaccine. And remembering a long life, lived well. I invite members to nowjoin me for a minutes silence to commemorate sir toms life. But first, The Government says its a hugely significant milestone in the fight against coronavirus. Ten Million People in the uk have now received their first dose of the Covid Vaccine. But at Prime Ministers questions, borisjohnson was told that the biggest threat to the Vaccine Programme was his governments reluctance to order the complete closure of the uks borders to limit the arrival of new st
Europes first black leader, after winning the welsh labour leadership election. The outgoing First Minister, mark drakeford, will step down from the post next week. Mr gething was born in zambia and is a former solicitor. In his acceptance speech, he highlighted the historic nature of his win. Today, we turn a page in the book of our nations history. A history that we write together. Notjust because i have the honour of becoming the first black leader in any european country, but because a generational dial has jumped too. Like ken and jane, devolution is not something that i have had to get used to, or to adapt to, or to apologise for. Devolution, welsh solutions to welsh problems and opportunities, is in my blood. It is what i have always known through my adult political life and that is the same for a growing number of our citizens and i want us to use this moment as a Starting Point for a more confident march into the future. A march into the future on behalf of a generation that,

Those are our values. It doesnt matter if you are in a different political party. Different political tradition. We always quite literally stand out from what is right. This is another sign of a desperate tory party willing to indulge in dangerous culture wars. Lets be honest, they have nothing else to offer the electorate. We know that the westminster establishment will throw everything at the snp. I am telling you to the, it wont work. No matter what the westminster parties throughout as, there is one thing we have that they will never have. That is an alternative to broken Brexit Britain. And that alternative is independence. That is why the snp will win the general election in scotland. We have to win the general election, because when the snp wins, scotland whence. Scotland wins. We are the only party that will put scotland first. In the years to come we will look back on our 2024 election victory as a crucial step in securing our nations independence.
