NEW: Peter Kyle tells @TimesRadio Breakfast that when he was asked to make cuts in his department to fund defence spending he said yes “within seconds.”
He won’t tell us by how much he has cut spending in Dept for Business and Trade. That’ll be in the Defence Investment Plan, apparently

“I don’t really care that much. I just want the place to be better.”

"John Swinney could have leaned into this and come out with more credibility, had he acted decisively."
@geoffaberdein breaks down how the SNP leader missed a chance to distance himself from the past and protect his leadership after the embezzlement scandal.

Former first minister @LordMcConnell explains what was different about the original intake of MSPs, compared to today’s recently elected parliament.
He suggests there are too many career politicians in Holyrood today, and that if a change isn’t going to happen organically it will have to come from the top down.

“They did not do their job properly”
@StraightTie shares her thoughts on the tragic murder of Henry Nowak, comparing it, in a way, to another tragic case: that of Sarah Everard.
She says that whilst different, both cases highlighted police failures and public servants failing to do their jobs properly.

“People aren’t sure about Nigel Farage”
@NationJames explains his theory that people might be losing faith in Nigel Farage, and that his ‘dramatic interventions’ on some things might be a bit much for some voters.
