Since replacing Ms Sturgeon, he has found himself largely overshadowed by the negative publicity generated by Operation Branchform, the official name of the police inquiry.
His predecessor’s return to the Scottish Parliament will steal away another precious day’s coverage, at a time when he needs to begin asserting himself and win over a sceptical public.two of her SNP colleagues at Holyrood have already gone on recordHer return threatens to antagonise those who believe that were she the leader during the current debacle, she would not have hesitated to suspend the membership of anyone arrested.
There is also still considerable disquiet within those in the SNP who supported either Kate Forbes or Ash Regan for the party’s leadership earlier this year, some of whom believe that Ms Sturgeon used her influence behind the scenes to ensure that Mr Yousaf won instead. The logic of Ms Sturgeon’s telegraphed return to Holyrood is obvious: get the questioning over with and move on.
