So, Humza Yousaf is pleading with Scottish voters not to vote Green in the coming election as a vote for the Greens would be a “wasted vote”.

Jim Houston, Edinburgh.
Many of us in Scotland are waiting excitedly with bated breath to read former first minister Nicola Sturgeon’s autobiography. But we should be warned that the most interesting parts of the book have been deleted. Dennis Grattan, Aberdeen.
GIVEN all the rules we the public are being asked to comply with to support the battle against climate change. could we ascertain how many MSPs have already complied with the various dictats of the SNP? It would be particularly interesting to know how many SNP and Green MSPs already drive electric cars (arc ministerial cars electric?) or have previously done away with gas central heating in their homes and fitted heat pumps. I am also curious to know how many previously believed the Millennium Bug was a real threat but I don’t suppose we will ever find this out. James Kelly, Larbert.
I note that the Scottish Government is installing drug consumption rooms in Glasgow, presumably so that drug abusers have somewhere safe, comfortable and warm to take their drugs.

This all makes me wonder whether the Scottish Government has a vested interest in the drug trade. Mac Roberts.
