Salmond enters Yousaf vote row

Salmond said the Health Secretary had a "different recollection" amid claims Yousaf deliberately set up a diary clash to miss the vote.

Gay marriage has been a key issue in the contest, with candidate Kate Forbes saying she would have voted against it.

Yousaf is also under scrutiny as he missed the final vote after arranging a meeting with the Pakistani government.

Former MSP Alex Neil said Yousaf intentionally missed the vote and Salmond, who leads Alba, has also entered the row.
