Alba Party Faces Uncertainty Before Scottish Election

Kenny MacAskill, leader of the Alba Party, has stated that the party is unlikely to register for the upcoming May Holyrood elections due to financial troubles. The Alba Party, founded by the late Alex Salmond, aimed for a supermajority for independence but failed to secure any seats in previous elections. Now, internal disputes, particularly after Salmond's death and leadership changes, exacerbate their precarious situation. MacAskill highlighted the challenges of meeting financial obligations, and suggested the party's future is uncertain.
