I enjoyed this exchange and wish such probing questions were heard more often. The only jarring moment was the singling out of Forbes in a pejorative manner. I don’t agree with her religion but I agree she has the right to hold that belief just as Humza has the same right to his religious beliefs but no one is quizzing him on his faith’s tenets, tenets which are in many ways similar to the Wee FRee. Good old Scottish mens” unconscious misogyny?

Great article, I have always been a unionist and found the SNP's student politics risible, but the one hope I had was that with such an electoral mandate from 2014 we would have seen real changes in Scotland for the better and we haven't, by almost every measure we have gone backwards....nearly a decade wasted!
