29 April 2026: Tune in to episode 6 of our On the Elections UofG Spotlight podcast, as we talk about public services with Professor Frances Mair from the University of Glasgow and Sarah Davidson from Carnegie UK.
This week on the UofG Spotlight On the Election podcast, we’re talking about whether the next Scottish government can fix public services.
What are the parties proposing to fix the problems in public services and help to sustain them into the future? What should they be doing?
An insightful conversation with two experts, from the manifestos, to prevention, the NHS, delivery challenges, rebuilding trust in public services, and risks ahead that could make things harder.
To talk about this and more, hosts Professor Nicola McEwen and Professor Kezia Dugdale are joined by Frances Mair, the Norrie Miller Professor of General Practice and Head of the School of Health and Wellbeing, University of Glasgow, and Sarah Davidson, Chief Executive at Carnegie UK, and Honorary Professor here at the Centre for Public Policy.
