Political analysis with David Wallace Lockhart, Lynsey Bews and The Stooshie’s Justin Bowie.
Scottish Green MSP Q Manivannan (pictured) apologised this week for the hurt caused by comments they made about rape on a podcast in 2025.
David and Lynsey hear from Justin Bowie from The Stooshie podcast about how the controversy has unfolded in politics. They discuss the UK and Scottish governments’ disagreement over Chinese firm Ming Yang’s plan to build a wind turbine factory in the Highlands, and the latest from the Scottish Labour leadership hustings.
