As the SNP Conference starts in Glasgow this weekend, it open to the news of polls showing increased support for Scottish Independence and a 20% lead for the SNP in Holyrood voting intentions. While this will give a boost to the conference-goers, what do we expect or not expect to hear from conference? The conference starts the day after what was widely reported to be the largest ever march and rally for Scottish Independence happened in Edinburgh, with the size of the march being estimated at around 100,000 people.
This week was Women and Girls in Sport Week and this was debated in the Scottish parliament on Thursday. We will talk to Maureen McGonigle about what is being done and what needs to be done to encourage more women and girls to become involved in sport and importantly what are the barriers to participation.
