This Brings About A Lame Duck First Minister.

Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has survived a vote of no confidence on her leadership.

The motion against the under-fire SNP leader was defeated by 65 votes to 31 in the Scottish Parliament.

An inquiry by a lawyer concluded Sturgeon did not breach the ministerial code over how her government dealt with harassment allegations against her predecessor Alex Salmond.

However, a separate investigation by a committee of MSPs found she did mislead parliament.
