Good morning Voornaam, We have just two days of campaigning left now before the country goes to the polls. And while the overall result may seem something of a foregone conclusion, the picture in Scotland is much less certain as the SNP battles against the Labour surge. First Minister John Swinney admits today that the result in many seats is too close to call as both he and Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar get their final messages out to voters. Political Editor Alistair Grant, meanwhile, looks back at the Labour landslide of 1997 which brought Tony Blair to power and considers comparisons with 2024. He has been speaking to some key figures from 1997 from across the political spectrum. Jim Murphy, former Scottish Labour leader, tells him "I think if there was a theme tune this time it would be Things Can Only Get Better sung not by D:Ream, but by Leonard Cohen". Elsewhere today, we report on plans to reopen a 125-year-old distillery, and look at the threat of bin strikes once again taking place in Scotland, including over the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Have a great day Alan |
