Coverage will also include the First Ministerial succession of Nicola Sturgeon to Humza Yousaf, the multiple changes of UK Prime Ministers, and the impending UK general election and its outcome – taking account of the abolition, since the last edition, of fixed-term Parliaments (by the Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act 2022) and its consequences.
