They discuss Labour's prospects as the self-proclaimed party of business, and how that might weigh on Scotland. After a chaotic week in Westminster, we try and figure out where we find ourselves now, and what we've learned. And ahead of Scottish Conservative Conference, the trio dissect the party's role within the Scottish political sphere, and why former leader Ruth Davidson could well have been First Minister, but was held back.In association with The Royal Bank of Scotland.
