A very quick guide to Nicola Sturgeon

Nicola Sturgeon is no longer the leader of Scotland's government, but she hasn't left the headlines. If you're not up to speed or don't follow politics, here's what you need to know about her.

The former first minister attended a police station voluntarily where she was taken into custody and questioned for seven hours. Shortly afterwards, she tweeted: "I know beyond doubt that I am innocent of any wrongdoing". The enquiries in the case continue.

The money was donated by activists for a future referendum campaign, but party accounts later showed it had much less than that in the bank.

Officers searched Ms Sturgeon's home and arrested her husband Peter Murrell, who was until recently also senior in the SNP. Almost two weeks later, the treasurer Colin Beattie was arrested.

It was seized by police from outside the home of Mr Murrell's mother in Dunfermline. Party sources reportedly said the motorhome was bought as a "battle bus", external ahead of the last Scottish Parliament election in May of that year but it was never used as one.

By the time she stepped down in February, her popularity in polls had been hit due to several high-profile rows, such as whether a rapist should go to a men's or women's prison. However, she said her resignation had nothing to do with current political woes, but that the general brutality of modern politics "takes its toll" on politicians and those around them.

Ms Sturgeon is the longest-serving First Minister (or leader of the Scottish government). She took over the Scottish National Party (the main pro-independence party) after Scotland voted against independence in 2014 - and was in charge until February 2023. Humza Yousaf is now first minister.

But the UK Supreme Court said Scotland couldn't do this without the permission of the UK government. It isn't going to give that permission but still determined, Ms Sturgeon said the SNP would treat the next general election - where the UK chooses who runs the country - as if it were a vote about independence. There's no sign Westminster would accept that argument.

Ms Sturgeon has a law degree and worked as a solicitor. But she has been member of the SNP since she was just 16 - and became a member of the Scottish parliament 13 years later.
