A POWER-SHARING deal between the SNP and the Scottish Greens was agreed today, with leaders promising improvements for tenants, a multi-million pound investment in rail and a just transition for workers. 

First Minister Nicola Sturgeon unveiled the draft plans, which would see the Greens support the government in votes of confidence and during budgets this parliamentary term. 

On Saturday the SNP’s national executive will vote to ratify the deal, while a majority of Scottish Greens members will need to back the proposals next weekend alongside two-thirds of the party’s council.
