Publisher's Synopsis
Every citizen was impacted by Covid in some way. Many lost their lives, huge mistakes were made, some exploited the situation making eye-watering sums of money whilst others were left cold, hungry and alone. Covid changed the world, Covid changed the world forever. This diary is my account of those times. Since 2016, former Labour MSP Neil Findlay has kept a log of the ongoings in Scottish Parliament, which he describes to be one of crisis. In 'Hope & Despair' Neil does not shy away from the impact he has felt both in his work in politics and in his personal life. From the domination of the SNP to observing decisions Tories made in Westminster, Neil speaks out about these last 5 years, reflecting on the ever-changing world of Scottish politics.
