  • Union chief Roz Foyer interview
    Apr 30 2025

    The STUC’s Roz Foyer joins us in Dundee where union members held their annual congress.

    Roz sets out the big challenges ahead for jobs, the decline of Grangemouth refinery, higher education and the future of the economy.

    She reflects on speeches to union members from First Minister John Swinney and Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar.

    And she warns Labour in particular have not lived up to promises at last year’s election, saying she wanted to hear some more 'humility' from the party leader.

  • Supreme Court 'biological women' fall-out
    Apr 23 2025

    We look at the fall-out from the Supreme Court ruling on women being defined by their biological sex in equalities law.

    What does it mean in practice? And how are politicians and activists responding?

    One MSP, the newly elected Dundee University rector Maggie Chapman, is at the centre of a backlash for calling the court “bigoted”.

    We also discuss whether John Swinney’s “summit” on tackling the far-right can achieve its aims.

    And we wonder if the people of Torry in Aberdeen will be delighted that Michael Gove has decided to use the name in his title at the House of Lords.

    It’s Holyrood recess, but the headlines keep coming.

    This week, the team speaks to striking staff outside Robert Gordon University fighting cuts in an education funding crisis.

    We also look at First Minister John Swinney’s latest reset while the world tries to get used to Donald Trump’s tariff whims.

    And we take a close look at MSP “burn-out” as politicians wonder if it’s worth going for public office with one year to the next Scottish election - and just weeks from a big byelection.
