Here would be mine, but I wouldn’t want to use my real name.
”Whatever you think of the Westminster government, why do you think that the Tory MSPs seem so much more professional and capable than the SNP politicians? Has the ease of getting elected in Scotland on an independence ticket (as the vote isn’t split) meant that the calibre of candidates hadn’t been important, or have you needed candidates that didn’t think for themselves so they would be happy to follow the party line?”

Admittedly, I don’t watch all the debates but due to the gender stuff have started watching more. I find the MSP Torys can see the potential flaws in policies, and study the detail whereas the SNP and Greens just seem to brush any potential problems away with their head in the sand. It’s like watching sensible adults debate with idealistic six-formers.

It’s because the MSPs are 3 rd rate regional administrators.

Too many questions for Humza - but I agree above is a good one to start with as so much money is wasted on feckless policy making .

Would you be so keen to ditch oil and gas if the job losses affected the central belt populous.. IE YOUR VOTING STRONGHOLD..?.
