This week, Craig talks to Frances Guy, Chief Executive of SIDA, Common Weal Board Member and the Former UK Ambassador to Yemen. They discuss SIDA's new report looking at ways that Scotland and the UK can "shift the power" away from the Global North who have caused much injustice and damage through the climate emergency and centuries of colonialisation and imperialism and to help create a much more just and equal world for All of Us.
