We have just heard that kate forbes has said she will not stand to become the next leader of the snp, you remember there is a vacancy because humza yousaf, that man there, has resigned. Kate forbes you may remember a year ago ran against humza yousaf for the leadership so many expected her to run again but she has announced that she will not run. What does that mean . It means in all likelihood John Swinney Look Set to be the next leader of the Scottish National party and therefore the next First Minister of scotland although of course i should underline that it is not confirmed at the moment. The reason he is in the driving seat is because just a few hours ago he announced that he would stand. Lets listen. Mi; announced that he would stand. Lets listen. G , announced that he would stand.

The Nomination Process not closed i the Nomination Process not closed yet so we still do not know who will be the next leader of the snp and the next Scottish First minister but john swinney announcing he could stand, that was about three hours ago or so. And thenjust in the stand, that was about three hours ago or so. And then just in the last 30 minutes we have heard that his presumed rival will not stand. Kate forbes was a former scottish Finance Secretary and popular amongst members in her party. She ran humza yousaf pretty close in the Leadership Race for the snp last year. And several Senior Party Members had backed herfor a rerun, another go at the Leadership Contest. We know she had a meeting with john contest. We know she had a meeting Withjohn Swinney in the last couple of days, we do not know what was said and we did not know until the last 30 minutes or so whether or not she would throw her hat back into the ring. And it looks like now she will not. So we wait to see the final closing deadline for candidates to throw their names into the ring to become the next leader of the snp. At the moment we have only one name and it Isjohn Swinney and looks the most likely at the moment to become the next leader of the snp but not confirmed as i said because there is still time for other people to throw their names into the ring. That Breaking News in the last 20 minutes or so, kate forbes will not be running for the leadership of the snp. We will get plenty more reaction to that potentially very significant news from scotland later. Lets take it to los angeles. The ucla campus. We have been keeping across the story over the last few hours, the early hours of the morning there now. We have been keeping across police detaining students. We do not have numbers for how many but there were hundreds and hundreds of students demonstrating against the events in the war in gaza. They had a Tented Encampment and in the last couple of hours the police moved in and dismantled that Tented Encampment. This was the moment it all started, you see on the left hand side the blue gazebo is effectively forming a kind of barricade, wooden barriers there and police in the middle dressed in black, decided to target a specific area, remove the barricades and on the right hand side of pictures you see, we can see them here, the wooden bits of plywood, the barricade being destroyed and broken down and removed by the police. And then they started moving into the area behind those bits of flute which was a large tented area. At the heart of the campus at ucla. And they have basically torn down all of the tents, they said it was unlawful. Lets show you some live pictures and give you a sense of exactly what was done. And you can see. Just some hours ago the barricades were largely up and the tents were all up and there were hundreds of people determined, protesters, that they would stay but they knew inevitably phone the Police Arrive because late last night they arrived and they announced encampment was unlawful and they asked people to disperse and they asked people to disperse and they asked people to disperse and they said they will be detained if they did not. We do not have numbers on the numbers of those arrested and we do not have numbers of any injuries, we do not know if there were any injuries but there were clashes between police and people standing at the front of the barriers but we did not witness certainly when we were on air any particular injuries but we do not have confirmation of that but we know that hospitals were put on standby for a considerable period beforehand when the expectation was they would go in and dismantle the barriers. Lets give you a sense of the geography. Lets take a moment to look at the geography of the ucla campus where events are unfolding. The grass there is what was covered. This from the sky gives you a sense, i think here from the north side, effectively, towards the top of the picture is that barricade up was deconstructed by the police when they decided to make their move. This was before the police went in, clearly that has been dismantled, that has now gone and the police are well and truly in charge of that area. Right, let me give you a sense of the moment this was happening and my colleague spent the night at the camp, lets listen in. You can see behind me for the Police Officers are right now, the Officer Strolling away at the barricades. The plywood had been reinforced throughout the course of the day after scenes of violence last night, they had been hammering away and they had been hammering away and they move through this area, they had tried on the other side, all the way back, the other side of the encampment but speaking to people who had contacts inside, they seemed to suggest there have been some kind of resistance and police had retreated. What you can continue to see up in the air are flash bangs that we have been hearing. Fired in the direction of the encampment. And you perhaps can see the umbrellas, the gazebo is lifting with the commotion as Police Continue to go in and go about making what appears to be rests. In the time that ive been here, directly witnessing this operation and i think perhaps ive seen at least then going off in the numbers of tense, at least 20 or 30 people who have been apprehended with zip ties behind their back which you can see going on right now close to that tree and of course, we are is the heart of the university. 0n the left of your screen what you can see in this direction is the library which also reportedly was barricaded by protesters and as such you can see the flash bangs going off into the area seemingly trying to disperse people from that area. Is there any sense you can glean of effectively the police tactics, how are they trying to achieve this . Actually, just as we talk right now i am trying to get a little bit closer now that an initial hole has been made on the perimeter and weve seen people trying to get closer to seen people trying to get closer to see exactly what is happening. Hear what you can see is people apprehended, zip ties behind their back and they have been searched, one woman came out and said i did not consent to this search so that is going on right now. Exactly what is going on right now. Exactly what is happening in terms of inside the encampment is not entirely clear but you can see an entire gazebo essentiallyjust being cast aside. And police at one point had essentially been Dragging Barricades and simply tossing them aside in an effort to try and get out and you know in terms of police tactics. Those flash bangs continue but finally i can say we are starting to get a clearer picture on the sheer number of officers who were inside. What i can see right now is a sea of helmets as police appeared to be holding the line and dealing with potentially what might be some kind of scuffle within the walls of the perimeter, obviously it is difficult to tell right now. But now and again we have seen smoke flares coming out in this direction. I was caught up in this direction. I was caught up in an earlier, it did not appear to be tear gas, more Distraction Canisters which had gone off from the side of the protesters, its fair to say but we will continue to get more accounts of exactly what happened in their later. And just taking a look at the pictures as we see, all the riot police in there, essentially trying to hold firm by the looks of it. In some areas. Thank you to helena for that, giving you an insight of what happened at the moment the police went into the encampment at the ucla campus. Back to scotland now. Some significant use in scottish politics, kate ford is announcing she will not run as the snp leader and there are some potentially significant consequences because of that. This is after humza yousaf you you see there resigned as head of the snp. Kate forbes previously ran to become leader against humza yousaf but has decided not to run this time, potentially significant so lets cross over to lorna gordon in edinburgh who can talk us through this. Kate lorna gordon in edinburgh who can talk us through this. Talk us through this. Kate forbes was seen as talk us through this. Kate forbes was seen as one talk us through this. Kate forbes was seen as one of talk us through this. Kate forbes was seen as one of the talk us through this. Kate forbes i was seen as one of the frontrunners for the job, was seen as one of the frontrunners for thejob, theres been a lot of speculation she her hat into the ring. She stood for the position last time and narrowly lost out to humza yousaf, she yousaf, she said she was the change not continuity candidate but in a quite extensive Statement Released in the last 30 minutes she said she had listened carefully to the vision Thatjohn Swinney set up this morning for scotland. And that it was clear and i think this is key, he is determined she set to return the snp to governing from the mainstream competent government earning the trust of the people. She said that was the vision she set out in the last Leadership Contest and she was convinced that was Whatjohn Swinney was offering as well. She said she looked forward to playing her role in making that happen and of course john swinney in his statement this morning did hold out an olive branch if you like to kate forbes and he said he hoped she would play a significant role in team snp as she put it and he said she was intelligent, thoughtful and creative and we know they have been having a lot of chats over the last few days, and Ifjohn Swinney is the only candidate for this position in order to lead the snp that he will give kate forbes a significant role in his cabinet. Remember, she was Finance Secretary and went off on Maternity Leave when she went up against him yousaf, he offered her a position in the cabinet but she said no thank you and she took her place in the backbenches but she has listened to Whatjohn Swinney said this morning and she is convinced that the vision he offers and she has decided she will not go for the topjob after all.
