Responding to Ash Regan quitting Alba, Scottish Liberal Democrat Lothians list candidate Jane Alliston Pickard said:

"Quitting two different political parties after failing to get elected leader is quite the political feat.

"It looks like Ash's dream of a giant independence readiness thermometer has been thwarted for good. That's bad news for parliamentary sketch writers but good news for the Scottish public.

"With Alba's last parliamentarian now abandoning ship, it seems like it's only a matter of time before their whole party winds up."
