Given their record, I do wonder at what point we start asking if their decline was inevitable - was the Scottish (centre-)left always synonymous with small-n nationalism?
I think there's a good argument that it always was.

"Fascinated by this. [Among] people your age, how widespread are these views? Should older people be thinking: you think the Overton Window has moved in the last ten years, just wait until you guys come up on the rails?"

3/ Perhaps more aptly described as a “men’s rights group”, Sex Matters alleges that cis men are being directly discriminated against because they are not allowed to use the Kenwood Ladies’ Pond, and that cis women are unlawfully excluded from the Highgate Men’s Pond too.

Indeed. But I've never used ChatGPT, but know my ex talked to it about me. I have very clearly not consented there. Instances like doctors noting that are covered under required medical processing, journalism covers a bunch, but I don't think that's covered here.

Hmm.
Interestingly, this kinda has to be illegal, I think? Or rather, in breach of GDPR.
There are going to be instances of people telling Chat GPT private details of other people (from EU countries). I can't see off the top of my head how this is compliant.

I started listening about six months ago after we'd followed each other for ages. It's really great and I meant to tell you how much I've enjoyed and recommended it.

Not convinced that "better pay for NHS doctors" is contrary to "save the NHS".
The generations of doctors going to Australia because they would be underpaid here shows there is a need there.
The NHS needs a vast funding increase, has for a while, BMA knows that.
