For this episode Ali is joined in his hosting duties by Ferret journalist Jamie Mann, as Sam is on holiday.
We look at a claim that Russian money is funding Ruth Davidson, and then speak to Dr Kevin Guyan about how the collection of data has historically been used to marginalise LGBTQ+ people, and the controversy over the 2022 Scottish census questions.
Kevin’s book Queer Data: Using Gender, Sex and Sexuality Data for Action is available to buy now.
