After watching the Channel 4 Scottish election leaders' debate hosted by Krishnan Guru-Murthy, here are a couple of thoughts.
Why does Anas Sarwar of Labour think he has the right to talk over everyone? He comes across as a deeply unpleasant man.
Reform's Malcolm Offord is clearly a racist and offers nothing but bile and division.
It is clear to me that neither has the gravitas to be First Minister.
