SNP ends power-sharing deal with Scottish Greens over climate strategy, reports say

Cabinet votes to leave historic Bute House agreement after government abandons emissions target

The historic power-sharing agreement between the Scottish National party and Scottish Greens is to end after a crisis over the Scottish government’s climate strategy, reports say.

The Bute House agreement was signed by the then SNP leader, Nicola Sturgeon, and the Scottish Greens co-leader Patrick Harvie in August 2021, bringing the Greens into government for the first time in the UK.
