Can Labour capitalise on SNP chaos post-Sturgeon?

Chopper's Politics

Note: this episode was recorded before Humza Yousaf was announced as the new leader of the SNP on Monday 27th March 2023.

Ahead of the SNP leadership contest result, Christopher Hope brings you a Scotland special edition of Chopper's Politics. The Telegraph's Scottish Political Editor, Simon Johnson, and columnist and staunch unionist Alan Cochrane, head to the studio to talk about the role of the Greens in the future of Scotland and whether the unionist parties, whisper it, might be in talks about some future tactical voting.

Plus the Labour's Anas Sarwar, found time to pop into the Red Lion to talk about why he thinks Sturgeon's departure makes it easier for Sir Keir Starmer to become Prime Minister, and how he would put the economy front and centre of a Labour lead Scotland, after years of focus on social policy.
