The Believe in Scotland March and Rally in Edinburgh

- Fatima Joji, Colm Merrick and Simita Kumar, all Holyrood Constituency SNP candidates.
- quick hello to Gillian Scottish Greens co-leader
- Simon Jones from Stranraer who we interviewed recently
- and last but not least a delightful chat on Calton Hill with a lady over from Glasgow. But Marlene didn’t get her name!
