There’s someone I’ve never seen before doing the U.K. opt out this afternoon. She’s Catherine Byaruhanga and a quick Google search suggests she’s usually an Africa correspondent. 



Out of interest did she do the 7-9 World feed this morning too?

According to iPlayer there was no coverage of the programme for government on BBC One Scotland, BBC Scotland channel, BBC Parliament and the listings didn’t show anything on BBC News Channel. Pretty poor really.

Obviously they did cover it on BBC News channel, but you’d think that BBC Scotland could provide coverage that the News Channel could join instead of an unfamiliar face? No offence to that individual, but there are numerous presenters at the BBC who have Scottish politics at the core of their job.
