Swinney Declines Inquiry into Yousaf's Efforts to Free Gaza-Trapped In-Laws

First Minister John Swinney states Humza Yousaf's actions were part of routine government operations amid conflict.

John Swinney, the current First Minister, refuses to investigate his predecessor Humza Yousaf's conduct regarding the release of Yousaf's in-laws from Gaza.
Yousaf's parents-in-law were trapped in Gaza during the Israel-Hamas conflict, prompting him to lobby the UK Government for their release.
Documents reveal Yousaf's private office actively contacted senior Foreign Office officials to expedite his in-laws' evacuation.
Yousaf and his supporters argue that no preferential treatment was requested or given, and his actions were in line with normal government procedures.
Senior Tory MSP Stephen Kerr calls for an inquiry, questioning Yousaf's methods despite acknowledging his motives.
