what ash regan will be taking is measures how we can reemphasise independence as the priority of the scottish government. that's what both alba and the snp should be interested in. how we can move away from the identity agenda that's taken up so much bandwidth of the scottish government and also how you can return to what we call the people's agenda of education, health, housing and jobs and industry and ash regan has some proposals on how to do that, so these are very reasonable proposals and let's hope that humza yousaf gives it a receptive hearing. there are calls for more drug and alcohol support to be offered to people from black, asian and minority ethnic communities following concerns from charities that these groups are often underrepresented in treatment. anna crossley has been speaking to kim, a south asian woman who was addicted to heroin for 16 years and is now in recovery. i'm quite nervous. my stomach is churning. i feel quite sick, really, because this is where my addiction started. i had come away from a really unhappy, horrible marriage, and i thought i was going to
