"The decline is because of policy not geology..." @geoffaberdein considers the potential for ongoing domestic production of oil and gas in the face of UK policy-making - particularly considering the ongoing Energy Profits Levy. @CalumAM | @akmaciver

Sanne Dijkstra-Downie, the Liberal Democrat candidate for Edinburgh Northern, shares her view of the Lib Dem mindset heading into the election, and that Holyrood politicians should be more willing to work together. @CalumAM | @akmaciver | @geoffaberdein

Isla McCay, Labour candidate for Skye, Lochaber and Badenoch suggests to @CalumAM that voters are more concerned with devolved issues going into the Scottish Parliament election. @geoffaberdein | @akmaciver

"Should this new mechanism come in place for 2027, industry will come to the table with significant multi-billion pound investment." @geoffaberdein considers the impact of the Middle East conflict on energy prices - and why the UK Government needs to unlock domestic potential. @CalumAM | @akmaciver

"Reform clearly benefits from that" Ailsa Henderson, from the University of Edinburgh, suggests that Reform's messaging is resonating somewhat well with Scottish voters, but suggests that it's not the first time a party in Scotland has attempted to shake-up the status quo. @CalumAM | @akmaciver | @geoffaberdein

"Maybe it's time to get away from it all" @LloydAMelville, SNP candidate for Angus South suggests that people have had enough of the Labour government at Westminster and that constitutional change is an issue that will drive voters to the polls at this May. @CalumAM | @geoffaberdein | @akmaciver

Why are the SNP not paying the cost of governing? Ailsa Henderson from the University of Edinburgh points out that the SNP seem to bucking the trend of long-term governments waning in popularity, with the party ahead in every Scottish Parliament election opinion poll. @CalumAM | @akmaciver | @geoffaberdein | @ailsa_henderson
