One year on from his election as Tory leader, the Prime Minister is making a visit north of the border. But according to commentator, Alan Cochrane, he’s not popular in Scotland – and he knows it. He tells Christopher Hope why his “brashness” and “Brexit” mean he doesn’t cut the mustard amongst Scottish voters.

Also on the podcast: Tory MP, member of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Obesity and self-confessed chocoholic, Jo Gideon tells listeners why government interventions on obesity don’t make for a “nanny state”, and Kevan Jones, Labour MP and member of the Intelligence and Security Committee pulls back the curtain on his long delayed report into Russian interference in UK democracy.
