Salad Days
Shortages of fresh salad vegetables across the country are leading to empty shelves and rationing in supermarkets. We tackle why this is happening and what Scotland can do to achieve food security with Pete Ritchie, Executive Director of Nourish Scotland.
Not to disappoint we also return to the continuing contest for leadership of the SNP and First Minister paying special attention to the recent hustings in Dumfries.
Just when you think the Tory government has hit rock bottom with its Rwanda refugee policy along comes the Home Secretary Suella Braverman with new legislation. This would remove cross Channel asylum seekers from the UK, banning them from any future applications for UK citizenship, and giving her the legal responsibility to deport them either to Rwanda or a "safe" third country.
All this plus dodgy jokes, puns, and the usual meanderings.
