Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf has spoken at an event in Dundee as he fights for his political future ahead of a no confidence vote.
He says he will not be announcing his resignation.
The first minister says he is confident he can win the no confidence vote.
A power-sharing deal with the Scottish Greens was scrapped by the first minister yesterday leading to bitter words from the party that had supported the SNP-led Scottish government for three years.
The Scottish Tories plan a vote of no confidence in the first minister and Scottish Labour have now said they plan a similar vote on the entire Scottish government..
The votes cannot happen until next week.

But on the other hand.
Regan 'relishes' chance to look at ways to work with SNP government
As we have been reporting, Alba's Ash Regan wrote to First Minister Humza Yousaf on Thursday after he announced the scrapping of the Bute House agreement.
She says her letter centred around progressing independence, women and children’s rights, and competent governance.
“I would relish the opportunity to sit down and talk through these areas and see if there are areas where we might be able to agree and work together,” Regan adds.
She also says she hopes that there might be an opportunity to speak to the Scottish government about accepting the recommendations of the Cass review into gender identity services.
