Yes, this sixty-something boomer has done another video. Whatever next? A TikTok dance? Maybe not.
Today I talk about my latest column in The Times. I ask if we in Scotland are ready for the rise of Nigel Farage and Reform UK.
I suggest not. I explain why we need to get ourselves into a new headspace, especially when it comes to the tone we take in our day-to-day politics.
If you’d like to read my column in full in The Times you can find it here.
