Government
The team discuss the SNP leadership debate and PM Sunak's small boats bill. During the televised SNP debate on Tuesday, the barbs became personal between the three candidates vying to be the next First Minister, as Kate Forbes launched an attack on Humza Yousaf's record in government, while the health secretary returned pointed comments about protecting equal rights, and Ash Regan wrote off her colleagues as "wishy washy" on independence. The team talk about the pitfalls of personal attacks, and why it might make governing more difficult for whoever the winner is. In Westminster, the Prime Minister and opposition leader Keir Starmer trade blows over the Conservative's new migrant plans, where anyone entering the UK illegally would be removed within 28 days and blocked from returning.
