When In Roam

Headaches for the UK and Scottish Governments around WhatsApp, roaming iPads, and marches. In Holyrood, opposition parties claim First Minister Humza Yousaf misled parliament over government WhatsApp messages sent during the pandemic, which the FM has denied. This was followed with the news that Scottish Health Secretary Michael Matheson racked up an £11,000 roaming bill on an iPad he took to Morocco, charges he claims were caused while doing constituency work using an outdated SIM card. Meanwhile in Westminster, Number 10 disowns an article written by Home Secretary Suella Braverman accusing the police of bias around its handling of protests, ahead of the planned Pro-Palestinian march this weekend, with some Tories calling for her to be sacked by Prime Minister Sunak. The team talk through a tricky week for leaders in Holyrood and Westminster.
