In this episode, we’re joined by Neil Findlay, former MSP, bricklayer-turned-politician, and one of the most outspoken voices on the Scottish left. From challenging Jim Murphy for the Labour leadership to walking away from the party altogether, Neil gives us his take on the state of politics, the future of the left, and whether Labour still speaks for working people.
We’re also joined by Cllr Barry McCluskey, Scotland’s number one blind golfer and a local councillor breaking barriers. Barry talks about leadership, resilience, and why disability should never be seen as a limitation. 👍 Like | 💬 Comment | 🔔 Subscribe – Let’s bring politics back to the people.
