    This. Is. Superb.

    The former leader of Scottish Labour gives an impassioned and engrossing analysis of everything happening in Scottish and UK politics:

    · SNP corruption

    · Triple by-election reaction

    · Scottish media pig pen

    · PLUS! Tartan Army action

    It's everything you'd want and more.

    From Hollywood film director to campaigner against the evils of Big Tech, via the House of Lords.

    Beeban Kidron is a force of nature and her new book 'Users' charts the rise of Big Tech and crucially tells us how we can fight back.

    This is a fascinating and hilarious interview with a national asset who has dedicated her life to fighting injustice online.

    Oh, and there's a cracking story about Patrick Swayze and Wesley Snipes.

    Prepare yourself for a big fat dose of political optimism. Jeremy Hunt is asking a big question: can we be rich again? His latest book seeks to answer this and before he gets into what needs to change, he also believes that there's plenty to be cheerful about. How can the government quickly deliver growth? What makes the UK uniquely placed to benefit from AI? What's his personal best London Marathon time? All this and more in a refreshingly positive take on politics.
