Nicola Sturgeon is to be reappointed as First Minister of Scotland | :00:08. | :00:13. | |
after MSPs backed her for the job in a vote | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
Ms Sturgeon won 63 votes, compared to her only challenger, | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
Lib Dem leader Willie Rennie, who picked up five votes. | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
Here's our Political Editor, Brian Taylor. | :00:25. | :00:36. | |
Team Sturgeon, the return First Minister says she relies | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
on the support of her family to do the day job. | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
Her parents, neice, nephews and a husband at her shoulder. | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
Her nomination papers were signed by her deputy. | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
We are all minorities here. Nicola Sturgeon said she was seeking her | :00:48. | :01:19. | |
own mandate. 18 months on I am a little but older and a lot wiser. | :01:20. | :01:27. | |
Finally Parliament divided on party lines. The number of votes for a | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
Willie Rennie is five. The number of votes for Nicola Sturgeon is 63. I | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
shall now recommend to Her Majesty that she appointed Nicola Sturgeon | :01:42. | :01:42. | |
as the First Minister. Congratulations all round, | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
her niece was delighted. Ruth Davidson didn't stand | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
because her election pitch She accused the SNP of relying too | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
much on executive power Is this Parliament, which holds | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
the real unchallenged mandate. Kezia Dugdale from Labour said | :01:58. | :02:07. | |
the new Administration would need support to govern | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
and faced a blunt choice. She can look to the left | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
where she will find allies and progressive parties who believe | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
in the power of government Or she can look right | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
to conservative forces to ask Patrick Harvie of the Greens | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
warned Nicola Sturgeon against following UK | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
Tory spending cuts. The First Minister must ignore | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
the increased number Willie Rennie reminded Nicola | :02:33. | :02:34. | |
Sturgeon she lacks a majority. Because we are minorities we need | :02:35. | :02:43. | |
to hunt for agreement with others. There is, quite simply, | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
no greater privilege than to be elected to serve | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
as the First Minister She acknowledged the new balance | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
of power. On the 5th of May, the people | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
of Scotland gave me a clear mandate to govern, but also an instruction | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
to do so inclusively. But then she indicated her approach, | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
listing a series of issues where she disagrees | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
with the Conservatives in describing her government as left | :03:14. | :03:15. | |
of centre social democratic. I will do everything I can to ensure | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
this moment in history marks the beginning of a new age | :03:20. | :03:27. | |
of national self-confidence. After the vote, back to daily | :03:28. | :03:37. | |
business as Nicola Sturgeon met up One of the women accused | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
of murdering Liam Fee has been telling the court she had worries | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
the two-year-old was self-harming. Nyomi Fee told the court | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
she and her partner Rachel were concerned about changes | :03:55. | :03:56. | |
in Liam's behaviour and believed Nyomi Fee on the right was giving | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
evidence in her defence. She said she had an affair | :03:59. | :04:07. | |
with Rachel Fee in 2010 and when Rachel became pregnant, | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
they made plans to move to Scotland. Nyomi Fee said when the boy's father | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
found out about the affair, They spent five weeks | :04:17. | :04:28. | |
at the Travelodge in Glenrothes The couple were married | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
in June the following year. Nyomi Fee said in the summer | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
of 2012, Liam went to a childminder. But after that she said | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
his behaviour changed, he didn't want to interact | :04:40. | :04:55. | |
and he would pinch himself She said he began to freak out | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
and he wasn't the same little boy. They googled the symptoms and feared | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
he had autism. They discussed this with the health | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
visitor and doctor, anybody She said it was upsetting to see | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
Liam self-harming and not knowing She told the court that around | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
the time she noticed changes in his behaviour they had concerns | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
about a child they looked after because he was showing | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
sexualised behaviour towards women. She said she would give him lines | :05:21. | :05:33. | |
and smacking, but there was never They deny murdering Liam Fee | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
and blaming his death The trial at the High Court | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
in Livingston continues. An 18-year-old man has been | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
arrested and charged following a crash in Edinburgh | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
in which a 33-year-old nurse died. Jill Pirrie was hit by a car | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
that was being pursued by police on Old Dalkeith Road last | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
Thursday evening. Police Scotland said the man had | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
been charged with a number He is expected to appear at | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
the city's Sheriff Court tomorrow. The amount of whisky exported | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
from Scotland fell last year and so did the value | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
of overseas sales. The industry has blamed | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
the decline on the instability of worldwide markets but says | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
there are some positive signs. It might not be everyone's idea | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
of a whiskey distillery but this is Scotland's newest | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
on the edge of Glenrothes. Here is the first of | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
the whisky flowing out. It will be years before this is | :06:36. | :06:37. | |
bottled and sold around the world. The Scotch whisky industry | :06:38. | :06:45. | |
is a long-term industry. You cannot worry about | :06:46. | :06:56. | |
next week's numbers. You cannot live like that, | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
you have to look long term and have Today saw the latest health check | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
on the state of the industry. Exports were down last year | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
but there are signs of recovery, especially amongst | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
the high-value, single malts. The total value of Scotch whisky | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
exports in 2015 was close The number of bottles exported, | :07:19. | :07:20. | |
more than a billion. Down by nearly 3% but the equivalent | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
of 34 bottles every second. Exports slumped to countries hit | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
by the downturn in oil prices, but Mexico saw growth, | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
with the USA and France remaining 90% of Scotch whisky is exported, | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
so we are dependent on what happens Obviously, the last couple of years | :07:38. | :07:44. | |
have not been brilliant. Some of the big markets have | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
declined, some have done well. We are, to some extent, | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
at the mercy of those conditions. In Fife, the first of the whisky | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
from this new distillery The malts won't go on sale | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
until the end of the next decade. No one can predict what the state | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
of the market worldwide will be by then, but they are hoping | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
there will be a taste Pupils face a lottery | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
in the number of exams they can sit in fourth year | :08:17. | :08:23. | |
according to a report Here's our education correspondent | :08:24. | :08:25. | |
Jamie McIvor. Back in the day and academically | :08:26. | :08:37. | |
able students typically sat eight O grades at the end | :08:38. | :08:39. | |
of their fourth year. These youngsters are just | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
starting their courses. I am doing seven National fives, | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
English, mathematics, chemistry, biology, modern | :08:49. | :08:56. | |
studies, history and food. I am doing German, | :08:57. | :08:57. | |
national maths and English. Youngsters do seven qualifications | :08:58. | :09:04. | |
in fourth year. At a few schools they do five, | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
but at a few others, they do eight. There is no Scottish policy | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
to reduce the number in some aspects of curriculum | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
for excellence guidance and the interpretations which have | :09:19. | :09:34. | |
been put on that guidance locally. These views may resonate | :09:35. | :09:36. | |
with some parents. Last year, we told you about a row | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
at the school in Helensburgh when nobody sat exams | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
in fourth year. The council has relaxed the system, | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
but this parent remains unhappy and moved his son | :09:47. | :09:49. | |
to an independent school. It should be every student's | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
right in Scotland to It shouldn't be down | :09:53. | :09:54. | |
to the headteacher of the local But across Scotland, | :09:55. | :10:01. | |
are youngsters losing out Many in education argue what really | :10:02. | :10:23. | |
matters is what students have achieved by the time | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
they leave school. 85% to 90% stay on to fifth | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
year and a good number This should be the focus | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
on the exit qualification The school should be building | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
towards that to maximise attainment Standardising fourth-year isn't | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
currently on the cards, but this report reflects concerns | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
of at least some parents. Scot Dan Wallace booked a place | :10:43. | :10:44. | |
in tomorrow night's 200 metre medley final after finishing | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
seventh in the semis at the European Swimming | :10:48. | :10:49. | |
Championships in London. silver for Team GB in the 100 | :10:50. | :10:51. | |

champion Adam Peaty. he is tattooed race. I have two up | :10:58. | :11:12. | |
my game as well. It's over to Christopher now | :11:13. | :11:20. | |
with the weather forecast Another clump of cloud coming our | :11:21. | :11:38. | |
way on Thursday. Tonight it is cloudy and damp for most. Reasonably | :11:39. | :11:49. | |
mild. Some morning brightness around the West and south-west. One or two | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
showers at times. Not a cold start. Still fairly cloudy. That wet | :11:56. | :12:02. | |
weather across northern Aberdeenshire and the Highlands and | :12:03. | :12:12. | |
Islands. As we head through weapon States some brighter conditions | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
through Central Scotland and towards the south-west. Slow moving showers | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
developing. The same story across the UK. Those showers are thundery | :12:22. | :12:28. | |
across England. Best of any brighter weather in the West. Decent spells | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
of sunshine across the West and south-west by mid afternoon. Where | :12:35. | :12:41. | |
you have to cloud it will be cooler. Slow moving showers could be there | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
for some time. Marquee on the north Sea coast to start Thursday. That | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
second clump of closed bringing rain by Thursday afternoon. England | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
staying reasonably dry until later in the day. Friday, the weather fans | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
have cleared but low pressure still in charge. Fairly frequent showers | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
and quite windy at times. That cloud across the United States, this is | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
what it is likely to look like on Saturday and Sunday. Wet and windy | :13:14. | :13:15. | |
spell of weather. Our next update is during Breakfast | :13:16. | :13:15. | |
at 6.25 tomorrow morning. But from everyone on the late team | :13:16. | :13:22. | |
