Holyrood 2021 Election Special

We examine the Holyrood election result and try to make sense of what it all means for the parties and its impact on the path to Scottish independence.

Show Notes

In this week's late night episode we give our immediate reaction to the results of the Holyrood election trying to make sense not only of what it means to the political parties but also its impact on the path to indyref2 and Scottish independence.
We also take a look at the Hartlepool by-election,and what it might tell us about Tory pro union strategy in Scotland.
It also,inevitably, leads us to the state of the UK Labour Party.
