Planet Holyrood - The Scottish Politics Show

Daily Record Political Editor Paul Hutcheon speaks to Scottish Labour candidate Michael Shanks ahead of the by-election in Rutherglen and Hamilton West this autumn.

Margaret Ferrier was sacked as an MP after breaking Covid rules. Her removal was nearly three years after she committed the offence.

Mr Shanks is quizzed on the cost of living crisis, the United Kingdom's relationship with the EU after Brexit, anti-semitism in the Labour Party, the two child benefit cap and who his leader is - Anas Sarwar or Keir Starmer? He also gives his views on the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill, Trident, abortions, disability legislation and assisted dying.
