Nigel Farage and Keir Starmer in Scotland

from The Stooshie: the politics podcast from DC Thomson · host DC Thomson

Two political heavyweights started the week in Scotland, and we went to speak to both. In Aberdeen, Nigel Farage unveiled his latest north-east defector from the Tories. And in Glasgow, Keir Starmer outlined the impact of his defence spending plans. We look through the developments - including a weird Reform attack on the media - to see what it means locally. And we look at the timing as voters in a crucial Holyrood by-election prepare to cast their ballots.
