It’s the week in which explosive testimony from Dominic Cummings cast the UK government in a very dim light indeed. Of course, a dose of scepticism is advised given his track record, as the team discuss, but this is still the most explicit picture we’ve yet got of Boris Johnson’s administration’s response in the early days of the pandemic. Plus, cooperation between the SNP and Greens, and more. Listen up.

It’s the week in which First Minister Nicola Sturgeon unveiled her new cabinet, with some familiar faces returning to front-line posts. It also saw beleaguered Education Secretary John Swinney moved into a new post; the new role is an important one, to be sure, but was the move simply to take the heat out of the exams scandal? Plus, our investigations continue into the deaths in care homes at the start of the pandemic. All this and more, on this week’s Stooshie.

It’s the week in which new MSPs were sworn into parliament after the elections, and the team reflects on the richness and diversity of the new cohort. Plus, the results of a rather macabre series of Freedom of Information requests put in by the P&J’s Investigations Editor, Calum Ross.

With the results not expected until the weekend, we knew we couldn’t report on who’s won the election on this week’s show. But there have been winners and losers of sorts all throughout the run-up, and so to reflect on the fortunes of the parties, personalities and policies in this oddest of campaigns, Courier Editor David Clegg is joined by the Director of the John Smith Centre and former Scottish Labour leader, Kezia Dugdale, and Chris Deerin, Director of Reform Scotland. There’s a lot of ground covered, so as you await the results, take a moment to look back.

It’s the last Stooshie before the election, and the team reflect on the nature of a campaign in a pandemic. Plus, Courier Editor David Clegg rejoins the Stooshie to share insight from his long interview with Nicola Sturgeon, which you can watch on thecourier.co.uk and pressandjournal.co.uk. And finally, there’s a little Easter egg awaiting any Janey Godley fans…

All the political parties have now set out their manifestos, and with doormats and pigeonholes and mail baskets across the nation groaning under the weight of party political leaflets, we ask how effective campaign literature is at getting the message across. Plus, we restrain ourselves from making the obvious pun at about 16:20.

Manifestos launched this week, with the SNP’s bold and generous spending plans immediately criticised for being unrealistically expensive, especially set against the absence of tax rises. But even away from the election, there are stories to unpack, including the news that the UK government is taking the Scottish Parliament to court over its plans to incorporate the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

It’s the week that the election campaign really lurched into life, and we’ve got a nice, easy-to digest summary of the latest polling, and what it feels like to part of a campaign in a pandemic. Plus: the Scottish Government’s flagship First Home Fund, which lends people up to £25,000 towards their deposit, runs out of cash after just a few days.

This is the week that DC Thomson Media launched its Election Hub for The Courier and The Press & Journal, and it’s also the week in which we launched our own election manifesto which details how we pledge to help you make an informed decision this May.
In this special episode, The Courier and The P&J’s editors are in conversation, explaining what their promises are to you, what we got wrong in the past, and how we plan to get better this election year and beyond. But they don’t have it all their own way: we also asked some people on the streets of Dundee and Aberdeen what they thought about the role of the media in an election cycle, and we play these back to David and Frank – who haven’t heard them before – to get their immediate reaction.
If, after listening, this sounds like the sort of fair, independent journalism that you need more of in your life, especially in the run-up to the Holyrood elections, you can get 30 days free, unlimited access to The Courier or The Press & Journal; go to https://www.thecourier.co.uk/subscribe/ or https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/subscribe/ to find out more.

It’s the week in which a shiny new party burst onto the Scottish political scene. Led by former First Minister and SNP leader Alex Salmond, it seeks to help create a supermajority for independence, but our exclusive Survation polling suggests only 3% of voters would cast their ballots for the new Alba Party. What, then, will be its legacy, and how will Salmond have reacted to the news? Listen and find out.

It’s the week in which Nicola Sturgeon survived a no-confidence vote and was judged not to have breached the ministerial code, in which the election campaign began in earnest, and in which our own Survation poll suggests the appetite for independence is on a knife-edge. We recorded this before Alex Salmond launched his new Alba Party, but at least we know what we will be talking about on next week’s show!

It’s the week in which a dramatic leak from the inquiry into the Scottish government’s handling of the Salmond allegations suggests Sturgeon will be judged as having misled the inquiry; in which George Galloway says something offensive; and in which The Courier and Press & Journal begin an exclusive serialisation of extracts from Alastair Campbell’s revealing diaries. Details on all this and more inside. Tap play!

It’s the week in which Nicola Sturgeon gave evidence at the inquiry into the Scottish Government’s handling of the Alex Salmond sexual harassment allegations, so it seemed like a good chance to take stock. If you’ve been struggling to understand how we got here and what might happen next, listen up.

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.

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.

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.

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.

It’s the week in which the Prime Minister visited Scotland in a controversial bid to clasp a country more firmly to his bosom which opinion polls have shown time and again is becoming more pro-independence. Did it work? Should it have happened? Plus, how women’s rights groups were ‘fobbed off’ when they tried to get involved with the Brexit negotiations, to protect hard-won rights, and, with Courier Political Editor Paul Malik back in the chair, there’s a small matter of a Stoosh of the Week to be awarded.
