Humza Yousaf hits out at ‘racist bigots’ as he steps down as First Minister

The departing First Minister said it had been “an honour and privilege” to hold the top job in Scottish politics. As both the youngest person to take on the job and the first person of colour to be First Minister of Scotland, Mr Yousaf said he had had opportunities he could “only have imagined in his wildest dreams”. Speaking from Holyrood’s front bench for the final time, he told MSPs about the racial abuse he had suffered since a young age.
