After weeks of violent outbreaks in England, the far right racist contingent tried to bring their poison to Glasgow's George Square last weekend.
Glasgow was having none of it and organised an anti racist demonstration which drew a far bigger crowd than the racists could muster.
We reflect on the event with our guests Bill Ramsay and Isobel Lindsay and consider whether Scotland's distinctive national culture is enough to protect us from these malignant influences.
The conversation ranges from our sense of our own Scottishness, our colonial past, the haunting experience of the clearances, our shared values and the inevitable fracturing of the UK state.
We also consider whether the SNP can rise to the challenge of making the changes necessary to survive the 2026 Holyrood Elections.
