Year: 2024

The popularity of Scotland’s First Minister, Humza Yousaf, has taken a significant hit among his party’s voters, according to a new poll conducted by research body Norstat. The study, which surveyed 1,086 Scots for the Sunday Times, revealed that Yousaf’s net popularity score plummeted to -7% among SNP voters who participated in the 2019 general election. This marks a stark contrast to his positive 14% approval rating in January.

Sunday’s papers feature various news topics, with most papers already going to print before Iran attacked Israel. Elsewhere, many of the papers feature images from the Australian stabbing attack at a shopping mall which left 6 people – five women and a man – dead and many injured – including a baby. Joel Cauchi, 40, was shot dead by a lone police officer who bravely approached the man. His attack is not thought to be terror-related and it’s been reported that he was known to police.
