Lesley's back frae film making in Denmark and the first part of this week's episode are her hame thochts frae abroad. Not giving the game away too much but safe to say she loved what she saw and reflects on what Scotland can and should learn from our Nordic neighbour.One of the other benefits of being away and so busy has been her non exposure to X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. So she missed the online stooshie over what exactly Kezia Dugdale said about Scottish independence at the Edinburgh Book Festival. Being one of the other guests at that event Lesley sets the record straight.Yet another Land Reform Bill is about to be presented to the Scottish Parliament.Will it "turbocharge land reform" as Michael Russell claims it needs to? Lesley argues in her latest article in The National that land ownership and local democracy are not only the key to a fairer Scotland but are absolutely essential to creating confidence in independence. ★ Support this podcast ★
