Chris McCallHOST
from across the political divide.
Chris McCallHOST
Now joining me to discuss the big issues this week, of which there are plenty, are John Ferguson, the editor of the Sunday Mail, and Ben Borland, the editor of the Scottish Daily Express.
Chris McCallHOST
Now, first up on Planet Hollywood today, we have some breaking news.
Chris McCallHOST
The exciting development that Andy Burnham has waded into the debate on when, or more accurately how, a second referendum on Scottish independence can take place.
Marion ScottGUEST
I was actually packing my suitcase and he offered me a job and I thought about it because I'd been offered a place at university as well to study journalism.
Marion ScottGUEST
And he had been a Sunday Mail journalist before he became the local newspaper editor.
Marion ScottGUEST
And he said to me, well, you could go to university, but you're still going to have to start at the beginning again.
Marion ScottGUEST
You know, you're just as well to come onto the paper and learn, because we all learn as we move through the job.
Marion ScottGUEST
And I started in a local paper called the Wishaw Press.
Marion ScottGUEST
And while I was there, I immediately started working for all the bigger papers.
Marion ScottGUEST
And within a very short time, I was freelancing and working in the Daily Record, working in the Evening Times and the Sunday Mail.
Gayle LloydHOST
All iconic Scottish newspapers.
Thomas HawkinsGUEST
They'd interviewed him, but he was never investigated fully.
Thomas HawkinsGUEST
So Jim Wilson made it his life's mission to get this guy back in front of a judge because he did stories first in the Sunday Mail and then the Sunday Post that said, this guy needs to be looked at again.
Thomas HawkinsGUEST
something like eight or nine years passed before that guy was brought back into court.
Thomas HawkinsGUEST
And it turns out, yes, shock horror.
Paul HutcheonHOST
I'm joined this week by two esteemed guests.
Paul HutcheonHOST
We've got Dan Veavers of the Sunday Mail and Douglas Dickie of the Scottish Daily Express.
Paul HutcheonHOST
So we're gonna look at three issues this week.
Paul HutcheonHOST
Number one, the race for the Scottish Labor leadership, which is pretty much the contest no one is talking about.
Dan VeversGUEST
Um, she's a formidable campaigner.
Dan VeversGUEST
Um, [chuckles] she was in vogue once, um, because she actually has some name recognition.
Dan VeversGUEST
Um, so, you know, although Monica Lennon is a Sunday Mail columnist, um, I'm not, uh, going all in for her, but I do think it would've been, um, an interesting, um, debate to have with her in it.
Dan VeversGUEST
Uh, I think Labor is at a crossroads at the moment into Scotland.
Tam CowanGUEST
She's not really a football fan, but they'd got tickets.
Tam CowanGUEST
She used to be the magazine's editor with the Sunday Mail, and it was a big, obviously, media event, the whole Celtic thing, and she went to that.
Tam CowanGUEST
But...
Tam CowanGUEST
And I took my daughter to one game and one game only, and which she liked.
Coll McCailHOST
Finally, for me, before we move on to our substantive stories is a topic that we've been revisiting regularly in recent weeks.
Coll McCailHOST
The Sunday Mail are reporting today that major new oil and gas drilling licenses could be granted by the UK government within weeks.
Coll McCailHOST
They refer specifically to Rosebank Oil.
Coll McCailHOST
And Jack Dawes sources close to both projects have said the prime minister is, quote, increasingly convinced the projects will help combat the cost of living crisis and increase energy security.
Danny HoylandHOST
It is.
Danny HoylandHOST
Sunday Mail journalist Jane Keogh, who I heard on another station yesterday.
Danny HoylandHOST
Oh, yeah? The Gary Hargraves.
Danny HoylandHOST
Oh, yes, yes.
