Lorna Slater , co-leader of the Scottish Greens , tells BBC it is unlikely her party will vote for the next Scottish government budget.

Many of the services reduced or scrapped in SNP finance minister Shona Robison ’s announcement last week were originally put in place by the Greens when they were in coalition between 2021 and 2024 .

The SNP lost 39 of its 48 Commons seats in the general election, most of them to Labour .

Badgering the SNP from the left could help the Greens up their seat tally on the regional list.

A constituency victory is probably still a long shot outside of Glasgow Kelvin if the party stands candidates in every constituency.
