A lovely summary of a momentous few days. My warmest thanks to all those who have been in touch with me as I become First Minister of Scotland 🏴

That was rather good.....
Anas Sarwar calls for a fresh leader. ‘I’m here,’ cries John Swinney, adding cheerily about Scottish Labour: ‘They’re over the moon that I’m here. They sent me here. They were all behind it!’
Seems to be enjoying his first

9 years ago today, albeit in the early hours of the morning. Our greatest victory ever and, as you can tell, we were very happy.....

Do you think there's a chance the Scottish Conservatives will ever change? There's a room worth reading.....
Nicola Sturgeon's finance secretary has been appointed as John Swinney's deputy.
This SNP Continuity Cabinet will continue to obsess about independence and ignore your priorities.

Congratulations to Kate. She will make an excellent Deputy First Minister.
Kate Forbes has described her appointment as Deputy First Minister as a "moment of extraordinary privilege".

Just what was it about Labour's immigration policies that were so attractive to right wing, anti immigration Tory MP, Natalie Elphicke...?

I think the last few days has shown that respect and consensus can be a feature across our politics in Scotland. No one should be asked to forgo or compromise on deeply held political convictions but we must ensure that all views are valid and everyone has the right to make them

I have worked closely with John Swinney for more than 30 years. He was by my side throughout my time as FM - as deputy, friend and confidante.
He is one of the kindest and most decent people I know - and without doubt the right person to be FM in this moment, for both party and…

Huge day yesterday as
@JohnSwinney
was announced as Leader of the SNP.
A time for our party to come together, to continue to deliver on the priorities of the people of Scotland and to build the case for independence.

25 years ago we awoke to the results of the first Scottish Parliament election and today we will speak to 2 former First Ministers in our inquiry into inter government relations.

It's quite remarkable the difference in tone between John Swinney and Sarwar and Ross in today's BBC clips. Where they seem angry, agitated and typically divisive John talks of unity and consensus .

We've had a tumultuous 10 days but we have ended up in the best possible place. You can already feel the lift in the party and in the country.

Really pleased that Graeme has chosen not to pursue his leadership challenge. We can now get on with getting the party ready for the next election and set out our renewed agenda.
BREAKING: Graeme McCormick has pulled out of the SNP leadership race after a "fruitful" conversation with John Swinney.
Story to follow.

I ran the 2005 General Election campaign for the SNP which took place 19 years ago today. It was just about the lowest point for the party in the devolution era but we gained 2 seats from a notional 4 to 6 and set up our victory in 2007. Feels like yesterday.....
