Millionaires and the millions
The Lesley Riddoch Podcast - A podcast by Lesley Riddoch and Pat Joyce - Tuesdays
Categories:
It's our first anniversary and we hit the ground running with dramatic scenes at today's FMQs as Alex Rowley comments that when it comes to tax the SNP always sides with the millionaires against the millions. An Alex own goal ,as Nicola pounces, or something far more interesting in the struggle between Sarwar and Leonard for leadership of Scottish Labour? Lesley returns to the state of Scottish local government and examines how the sparkle of fantastic community projects could be harnessed to radical reform to achieve the best of both worlds. I focus on the case of asylum seeker Samim Bigzad and the complete disregard for the law displayed by Home Secretary Amber Rudd. Is this yet another example of creeping Conservative authoritarianism? A less than happy flight experience at Stansted airport leads Lesley to thoughts on ,not only ,modern travel but also the nature of the modern workplace. We finish on the tale of L'Oreal v The Naked Soap Co. Why? Because they're worth it.
