In Conversation with Alex Massie and Shona Craven

Join us for an engaging end-of-year discussion with Alex Massie, weekly columnist for the The Times and Sunday Times, and Shona Craven, community editor and columnist at The National. We'll also run ASPA's AGM.

Alex and Shona will share their insights on the current political and policy landscape, reflecting on the key moments of 2025 and looking ahead to the Scottish Budget in January and the elections in May, with plenty of time for audience questions and discussion. We’ll also be serving welcome drinks and networking drinks after to mark the end of another interesting year in Scottish politics with some festive cheer.
