Go Radio Politics Show: May 31st, 2026.

This is a catch-up version of Bernard Ponsonby's live, weekly Sunday show on Go Radio.

This week on The Go Radio Politics Show, the fallout from the Peter Murrell embezzlement case takes centre stage as politicians clash over accountability, governance, and trust in Scottish politics.

Should there be a full probe into the SNP’s internal failures—or is the matter already settled?

Beyond the scandal, the panel dives into the growing turmoil inside UK Labour, as Tony Blair delivers a stinging critique of Keir Starmer’s leadership and raises questions about the party’s direction. Is this a crisis of leadership—or vision?

Plus, a forward-looking debate: should Scotland appoint a dedicated minister for older people, or is the real issue deeper systemic neglect?

Key highlights:

• Heated debate on whether a parliamentary or independent inquiry is needed into SNP governance
• Sharp divisions on Nicola Sturgeon’s credibility and political accountability
• Tony Blair’s explosive intervention—and what it means for Labour’s future
• Real talk on the cost-of-living crisis, policy direction, and political trust
• A generational crossroads: pensions, fairness, and the future of ageing in Scotland
