Nicola Sturgeon has announced she is resigning as Scotland’s first minister after more than eight years in the role.
The Scottish National Party leader said she knew “in my head and in my heart” this was the right time to step down.
Ms Sturgeon said she would remain in office until her successor was elected.
She is the longest-serving first minister and the first woman to hold the position.
Ms Sturgeon insisted her resignation was not in response to the “latest period of pressure”, which has included controversies over gender reforms, trans prisoners and the strategy on independence.
