Description
The National Care Service is delayed and the build-up to Holyrood 2026 continues. With the announcement that the National Care Service has been delayed, but not dropped according to the Scottish Government, and the original vision set out by former First Minister Sturgeon looking further away, what might be the fate of the National Care Service in Scotland, and might there be a UK version like Labour set out in its manifesto? Plus, SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn has caused a stir by putting his name forward to stand as an MSP in the 2026 Holyrood election, while also hoping to stay on as an MP in Westminster, and the Labour government frets over potential Trump tariffs.
