Week 8, 2021: Sturgeon’s popularity drops, and Salmond gives evidence
Friday Feb 26, 2021
Friday Feb 26, 2021
It’s the week in which Alex Salmond gives evidence at his own inquiry, and in which a new poll shows both a lessening in support for independence and a 16-point drop in First Minister Nicola Sturgeon’s usually bulletproof popularity. We also got details this week on Scotland’s route map for exiting lockdown, and can compare it to the UK government’s. The P&J’s Westminster Correspondent and the Evening Express’s Political Reporter join David Mac Dougall to help you understand what’s happening in politics, and why it matters.

Week 7, 2021: Will Salmond give evidence?
Friday Feb 19, 2021
Friday Feb 19, 2021
It’s the week in which… well, for once, comparatively little happened, and after the last year, we’ll take it! We’re awaiting a statement next week on the roadmap out of lockdown from the Scottish government, and all eyes are on whether Alex Salmond will give evidence at his own inquiry. But there’s still plenty to discuss: the political judgements, what’s at stake, and how things might shake out.
Join journalists from across the DC Thomson Media folio of newspapers, and from all across the country, to help you understand the implications of what’s happening in Holyrood, Westminster and beyond.

Friday Feb 12, 2021
Friday Feb 12, 2021
It’s the week in which the Salmond inquiry was rocked by further drama, in which the introduction of Scotland’s mandatory quarantine for inbound travellers had a bumpy launch, and in which the unevenness of support for Covid was laid bare.

Week 5, 2021: Disunion in the Union Unit
Friday Feb 05, 2021
Friday Feb 05, 2021
It’s the week in which Ochil and South Perthshire MP Luke Graham was ousted from Number 10’s “union unit” after a bitter row over strategy, in which we saw Scotland as the UK nation slowest to roll out vaccines, and in which we got to see how the sausage was made in local democracy.
