More than £200m has been spent by the Scottish government on external consultants to help run a subsidy system for farmers, ITV News has learned.

The total spend is just over £203m since 2016, the vast majority of which went to three external companies.

And they’re off. Nominations opened on 17 March for potential SNP candidates in next year’s Holyrood election. But it’s not just the fresh blood putting their names forward to be MSPs that has raised eyebrows. Over the weekend, Michael Matheson, the former Health Secretary, became the latest to announce he will stand down at that contest. In total, 23 sitting nationalist MSPs are quitting, not including John Mason, who was elected for the SNP but is sitting as an independent.

Nicola Sturgeon’s time in office will be judged on many levels. Scotland’s longest-serving First Minister. An election-winning machine.

It’s probable that Ms Sturgeon does not want to be judged by her own measure.
