John Swinney to join Laura Kuenssberg on Sunday show

LAURA Kuenssberg will be joined by John Swinney, one of the Tory leadership candidates and along with the UK Government's Secretary of State for Business and Trade on Saturday morning.

The BBC’s political show, Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, will have Scotland's First Minister, the Labour MP Jonathan Reynolds and Tory MP Robert Jenrick on as they will discuss a range of topics.

Swinney is a last minute addition to the show along with the actor Brian Cox to talk about the sudden death of Alex Salmond

Jenrick is one of the last two Tory MPs who are left in the leadership race along with Kemi Badenoch, following James Cleverly's shock elimination last week.

Reynolds will likely face questions over Labour's poor start to government after the party's leader and the UK's Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, reached the milestone of 100 days in charge yesterday.

The hour-long programme can be watched on BBC One, BBC News UK and on the BBC iPlayer starting from 9am.
