Last month, Politics.co.uk highlighted the squalid living conditions of some of Nicola Sturgeon's constituents in the Govanhill district of Glasgow. Today we report that local residents will descend on the SNP conference this week to offer delegates a guided bus tour of the area in the hope that if they see the issues for themselves they might take action. 

And, after hearing very little from Labour on Brexit, they are now piling the pressure on the government over its plans to leave the EU. Today they have published 170 questions, one for each day before Article 50 is expected to be triggered.
