In Conversation with John Swinney, First Minister of Scotland

This week it’s a very special episode of Talk Media as we welcome the First Minister of Scotland and leader of the SNP, John Swinney MSP, to the programme.  In conversation with broadcaster Stuart Cosgrove, the First Minister chats about his media tastes, his takes on his portrayal by the media, and Stuart even manages to get some fresh insight into some stories that he was recently a major part of. He also shares his thoughts on Nigel Farage and the rise of Reform UK in Scotland.
