SNP leadership candidates disagree on next step for gender bill
SNP members can vote for Nicola Sturgeon's successor from 13 March and the winner will be announced on 27 March.
Ms Regan, who resigned from the Scottish government over the proposed reforms, said the SNP had lost the trust of the public on this "divisive" issue. Ash Regan insists she's the candidate for change, and is pitching directly to the grassroots who are impatient for independence. He said: "[Nicola Sturgeon] is by a country mile the smartest person I know. If there was a quick way of getting our independence, trust me, Nicola absolutely would have found it."
