As Donald Trump arrives in Scotland, the severity of Israel’s starvation in Gaza has driven even the Daily Express to declare that the genocide must end. 

Prime Minister Keir Starmer and First Minister John Swinney have both pledged to raise the question of Palestine in their private meetings with the American President in the coming days.

Coll McCail is joined by Isobel Lindsay, Co-Vice Chair of the Scottish Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and a veteran Scottish Independence campaigner, and Bill Ramsey, the SNP Trade Union Group convener and sits on the party's National Executive Committee, to trace fresh schisms within Scotland’s governing party over critical questions of foreign policy and ask what hope for Scottish nationalism in next year’s Holyrood elections.
