Members will be able to vote on whether their party should continue to cooperate with the SNP after the announcement on Thursday that the Scottish government was scrapping its key climate pledge.

The Scottish Greens co-leader Patrick Harvie said that when the vote, which will be held at an upcoming extraordinary general meeting (EGM), takes place, he would be urging members to support the power-sharing deal, so the party could “put Green values into practice” in government. The date of the vote has not yet been announced.
