Bringing a friendly and fun face to politics is a difficult task but at every chance he got, we always saw that wide Willie Rennie grin on our TVs and in our papers.  It was infectious. There is a lot more to Willie Rennie than his stylish photo ops, including his direct impact on issues such as mental health, which has come to the forefront of Scottish politics because of the Scottish Liberal Democrat leader getting up every week at FMQs and holding the First Minister’s feet to the fire.

Mr Rennie, known for his eye-catching photocalls as well as his championing of mental health care,  is stepping down after a decade in the job. His decision comes after the Liberal Democrats saw their number of MSPs reduced further at May’s Holyrood elections, with the party winning just four seats.
