Bernard and Alex discuss the SNP's electoral chances and what the election result means to the SNP's cause of independence. They are joined by former SNP MSP, investigative journalist and life-long independence campaigner, Dorothy-Grace Elder who doesn't hold back in her criticism of John Swinney.

DGE describes John Swinney as a "Sturgeonista" who "slides and slithers" and "is very much an acolyte of whoever sat on him last". She continues "I think you need Dynorod in to that [SNP] front bench".
