This is an exclusive, the first interview Anas has given since becoming a Minister and a Lord.

No stone is unturned as he tells us:

What really happened when he called on Keir Starmer to resign.

Why Scottish Labour lost so badly.

Why he believes there are still legitimate questions the SNP must answer about the party finances...

And so much more.  

It's packed. 

Best enjoyed with a black coffee...
