Summary

Undecided voters in Scotland who previously backed the SNP give their verdict in the Times Radio Focus Group. Humza Yousaf is 'unremarkable', but which party leader is a snake?

Matt is joined by James Johnson of JL Partners to discuss the panel's views on the Scottish government, independence and party leaders on both sides of the border.

Plus: Columnists Manveen Rana and Matt Charlton discuss plans to tackle problem gambling, why Britons like their neighbours more than in other other nations, and whether baked beans have been unfairly maligned.
