Scottish National Party figure Stephen Flynn says he resigned as Westminster leader weeks before the Scottish Parliament election at Holyrood. He makes the claim at an Edinburgh Fringe event titled "Political Party with Matt Forde," where he discusses developments in his role and timing around the election period.

The two reports provided repeat the same basic information: Flynn’s resignation from his Westminster leadership position and the assertion that it occurred weeks before the Holyrood election. One outlet specifies the setting as an Edinburgh Fringe appearance and ties the comments to the discussion format with Matt Forde. The available coverage does not include additional details such as the reasons for resignation, who takes over the role, or how the decision is received within the party or by political opponents.
