The Future of the Union: with Councillor David Barratt

Can the SNP keep a hold of the keys to power? Or are the locks about to be changed...? Since coming to power in 2007, the SNP have been in control of our country for 18 years. However things have changed since the last election in 2021, with the SNP loosing support and parliamentary seats as a result. After becoming party leader and First Minister in 2024, John Swinney says that he has steadied the ship, and put The SNP on the path to victory. Is he right? Or has the era of SNP dominance reached its final chapter? In this episode, I am joined by Fife SNP Councillor, David Barratt, who is also the SNP candidate for Cowdenbeath at the upcoming election.

Back from the Brink: with Claire Baker MSP

Once the dominant party in Scottish politics, Labour faced electoral catastrophe throughout the 2010s, holding just one Scottish MP for most of the decade. However, after the General Election last year, Labour romped home, gaining 36 seats in Scotland, turning the central belt back to red and putting them on track to govern Scotland. However, with public discontent towards the actions of the UK Labour Government, the road to government doesn't look so clear as it once did. Join me and Scottish Labour MSP, Claire Baker, as I discover Labour's plan for a 'New Direction' for Scotland and if they have what it takes to win the keys to power.
