Humza Haroon Yousaf {{post-nominals|country=GBR|MSP}} (born 7 April 1985) is a Scottish National Party politician who has been Cabinet Secretary for Justice since 26 June 2018 and the Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for Glasgow Pollok since 2016. Yousaf was previously an MSP for the Glasgow region from 2011 to 2016. He served as Minister for External Affairs and International Development from 2012 until 2014 and as Minister for Europe and International Development from 2014 until 2016. He was Minister for Transport and the Islands from 2016 until 2018.

Early life and education

Yousaf is the son of immigrants who arrived in the UK during the 1960s: his mother came from Kenya and his father from Pakistan. Yousaf was educated at Hutchesons' Grammar School, an independent school in Glasgow.[1] He studied Politics at the University of Glasgow, graduating with an MA in 2007.[2] Whilst at University, Yousaf was President of the Glasgow University Muslim Students Association (GUMSA) as well as a prominent figure involved in student politics in the Students' representative council.

From an early age, Yousaf was involved in community work, ranging from youth organisations to charity fundraising.[3] He was the volunteer media spokesperson for the charity Islamic Relief,[3] worked for community radio for twelve years and on a project which provided food packages to homeless people and asylum seekers in Glasgow.

Yousaf worked as a Parliamentary assistant for Bashir Ahmad, from Ahmad's election as Scotland's first Muslim MSP in 2007 until Ahmad's death two years later.[4] Ahmad was a personal influence. Yousaf then worked as Parliamentary assistant for a few other MSPs including: Anne McLaughlin, Nicola Sturgeon and Alex Salmond who was the-then First Minister.[5][6] In 2008, whilst working as an aide, Yousaf took part in the IVLP programme, an exchange that is run by the US State Department.[7] He was awarded the “Future Force of Politics” at the Young Scottish Minority Ethnic Awards in 2009, which was presented to him in Glasgow City Chambers.[8]

Scottish Parliament

In May 2011, he was elected to the Scottish Parliament as a regional member for Glasgow.[9] At just 25 years of age, he was the youngest MSP to be elected to the Scottish Parliament.[10] When being sworn in, he took his oath in English then Urdu reflecting his Scottish-Pakistani identity;[11] he was dressed in a traditional sherwani decorated with a Partick Thistle tartan touch and a plaid draped over his shoulder.[12] Yousaf was appointed to the Justice and Public Audit Committees. On 25 May 2011 he was appointed as a Parliamentary Liaison Officer to the Office of the First Minister, remaining in this post until 4 September 2012.[13]

Junior minister

On 5 September 2012, Yousaf became the Minister for External Affairs and International Development after Alex Salmond had undertaken his first major cabinet reshuffle of the parliamentary session.[14] This junior ministerial appointment saw him working under the Cabinet Secretary for Culture and External Affairs. He is the first Muslim Minister to be appointed to the Scottish Government.[15][16] Nicola Sturgeon became First Minister in November 2014, keeping Yousaf as a junior minister, although the name of the position he held was changed to the Minister for Europe and International Development.[17] On 18 May 2016 he was moved to the position of Minister for Transport and the Islands in a reshuffle.[18] On 26 June 2018 he was moved to the position of Justice Secretary to the Cabinet[19]

For Lent in 2018, Yousaf gave up Irn-Bru and dedicated the money he would have spent on the beverage to Aid to the Church in Need, a Catholic organisation that helps persecuted Christian minorities.[20]

Columnist

Yousaf is a columnist for the Evening Times.[21]
