"We don't know what the endgame is" Geoff Aberdein asks Dr Siavush Randjbar-Daemi from the University of St Andrews, his thoughts as to how the ongoing conflict in Iran might come to an end.

Are too many people going to university? The Scotsman's Education Correspondent, Catriona Stewart, reacts to Malcolm Offord's comments on university attendance in Scotland. She asks if it is, in fact, the right destination for everyone.

“In order to be a nation that builds ships, we need to be a nation that has ships” Andy Maciver and Geoff Aberdein agree that Scotland should be a nation of shipbuilding… but that currently Scotland’s infrastructure won’t allow for that to happen.

NEW: Live on our podcast, @johnswinney.bsky.social reverses the SNP's position on oil and gas. He says the war in the Middle East "changes the balance of the arguments".

“The financial situation doesn’t allow for a continuation of that” Andy Maciver suggests that this new Scottish government has to forge its own path and be totally different from previous SNP administrations. Can (and will) the SNP succeed during another term in power?

"The Scottish Greens' brand is STRONG?" @markmcgeoghegan.bsky.social, Andy Maciver and Calum Macdonald discuss the Greens unique brand within Scottish politics and how that could help them during election campaigns.

Andy Maciver reacts to the news that Douglas Lumsden is set to run in the Aberdeen South Westminster by-election, just a few days after being re-elected to The Scottish Parliament. The seat will be vacated by Stephen Flynn who is leaving Westminster for Holyrood.
