VIEWS

The Scottish Greens co-leader Lorna Slater has tested positive for Covid hours before Cop26 begins.

The MSP for the Lothian region said she would now self-isolate in line with NHS Scotland coronavirus guidelines. It means she will miss events at the UN climate summit, which starts in Glasgow on Sunday.

Slater, who is the Scottish government’s minister for green skills, the circular economy and biodiversity, said on Twitter: “I had a positive Covid-19 test result.

“I feel very relieved to be double vaccinated and have only cold-like symptoms. I will be self-isolating following NHS advice.”

The Scottish Labour MSP Monica Lennon showed her support by wishing Slater well on social media.
