The Prime Minister has announced he is introducing legislation to overturn the convictions of sub-postmasters in England and Wales, with Humza Yousaf following suit in a UK-wide plan.

It is estimated that more than 700 people across the UK were wrongly prosecuted by the Post Office between 2000 and 2014 as a result of the faulty Horizon system installed by IT giant Fujitsu.

Meanwhile, hundreds of university places for Scots students will be slashed as part of government budget cuts, a top SNP minister has admitted. Shona Robison told MSPs this week that 1,200 spaces for first year undergraduates would be axed.

A new opinion poll also shows Keir Starmer’s Labour is in line for a 120-seat majority at the general election.
