Humza Yousaf: Life is marked by milestones. It was almost exactly a year ago that I made my maiden speech in this chamber, and the feeling of great honour that I had on that occasion has never left me, regardless of the issue on which I have been speaking. It is a real privilege to contribute to today’s historic debate. Another milestone in my life was the Iraq war, which was the catalyst that drove me...

Humza Yousaf: As members who have spoken before me did, I thank Jenny Marra for, and congratulate her on, securing this important debate, in which I am delighted to take the opportunity to speak. That said, in the office block in Glasgow where my office is, the office of Action on Hearing Loss is a few floors above and the National Deaf Children’s Society’s office is on the floor below, so I have the...
Lewis Macdonald: ...about the on-going process of reducing police staff numbers that would result from the bill, and it was disappointing that those concerns were not shared by members of the Government back benches. Humza Yousaf claimed that: “the myth that ... police officers will be taken away from patrolling the streets to fill out paperwork all day in a back office was firmly knocked on its...

Johann Lamont: ...and perhaps even one or two on his front bench. Who is the senior source, who said, “The people of Scotland don’t like arrogance”? Or what about the wise words of self-styled rising star Humza Yousaf—and we need a new rising star after Derek Mackay’s last seven days—who said: “We’ll lick our wounds. We’ll look at the numbers and see where we went wrong, hopefully.”...

Humza Yousaf: I, too, echo the committee’s praise of the progress that Scotland’s local authorities are making towards meeting the 2012 commitment. I thought that the report itself was very constructive and contained some very practical suggestions on how we might move forward and ensure that all our local authorities achieve the 100 per cent target. Of course, the problem with being the last member to...
