and on BBC One, we now join the BBC's news teams where you are. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Ruth Davidson tells the Conservative conference she will fight | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
for NHS spending increases and against tax rises. | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
College lecturers across Scotland vote to strike, | :00:15. | :00:16. | |
We're on patrol with the pothole squad in Edinburgh - | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
they can't work fast enough for the capital's drivers. | :00:21. | :00:30. | |
One minute you are driving and the next minute, straight into a | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
pothole. Also | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
on the programme: From road to rail. We get the first look | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
at new driverless trains being designed for | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
the Glasgow Subway. And Andy Murray gets the Davis Cup | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
campaign off to a good start with a straight sets victory over | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
Japan's Taro Daniel. The Scottish Conservative leader, | :00:49. | :01:06. | |
Ruth Davidson, has promised to fight for NHS spending increases | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
and against Scotland becoming She made the pledges at her party's | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
conference in Edinburgh, where both she and the Prime | :01:12. | :01:19. | |
Minister David Cameron argued that only the Conservatives | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
could hold the next From the conference, | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
here's Glenn Campbell. Ruth Davidson is not playing to win | :01:25. | :01:40. | |
power at Holyrood. At Murrayfield, her pitch is for the Conservatives | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
to displace labour and become the main opposition to an SNP | :01:46. | :01:46. | |
government. To challenge them to reduce NHS | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
targets and keep the health budget rising. Spending on | :01:49. | :01:57. | |
our health service should rise each year by | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
whatever is biased, whether that is inflation, 2%, or by extra funding | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
from Westminster. Every single penny passed on. | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
She said the time was not right for a tax cut but promised to resist tax | :02:10. | :02:18. | |
rises. There is no justification, none at all, for demanding a higher | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
tax burden on Scottish families than on people elsewhere in the UK. It | :02:23. | :02:33. | |
would have been laughable previously for a Conservative leader to suggest | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
the Tories might overtake the Labour Party. To be honest, it is still an | :02:37. | :02:44. | |
ambitious target. The polls suggest they are still third placed that | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
begat between them and Labour has never been narrower, and the Prime | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
Minister things it can be closed. Today we are the effective | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
opposition and for the next 62 days we will fight to the official | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
opposition. He also touched on his case for us to remain in the EU. | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
We have worked so hard to get our economy growing, to get our people | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
into work, to see living standards rise. | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
Leaving the EU could put so much of that at risk. On the fringe, the | :03:16. | :03:24. | |
alternative view. I think we should be to make our own laws and control | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
our borders, which is why I want to leave because we cannot do that | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
while in the European Union. The EU vote divides the Tory party but in | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
Scotland they have a Holyrood election to focus on first. Let us | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
win for Scotland. Brian Taylor joins me from | :03:40. | :03:50. | |
Edinburgh. We have heard from Ruth Davidson but what is the strategy | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
underlying what she said? In essence, to some extent it is a | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
legacy from the referendum. She is positing the prospect of a | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
continuing SNP government with Nicola Sturgeon returned as First | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
Minister and the opinion polls bear that out. It is a legacy from the | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
referendum. Just as the SNP have managed to corral the yes vote to | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
continue to vote for them in elections, so Ruth Davidson believes | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
a substantial section of the No voters can become rows to the | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
Tories. She was hugely tempted to offer a tax cut as part of the | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
programme but it was not playing well on the doorstep, so at the very | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
least she offers to undercut the labour and Liberal Democrat offer. | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
Basically, it is a transactional deal with voters. It is saying, we | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
don't trust the SNP, the Conservatives will stand against tax | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
rises and against a second referendum on independence, offering | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
to be a Bulwark and is to the SNP at Holyrood. It is a transactional | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
bargain but whether the voters by it is another matter. | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
The jury in the trial of a teenager accused of murdering a pupil | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
at an Aberdeen school has been shown photographs of the fatal stab wound. | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
Pathologist James Grieve said the stab wound had gone | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
Asked if it was survivable, he said he was not surprised it had | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
Bailey Gwynne, who was 16, died after being stabbed | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
The 16-year-old accused, who cannot be named for legal reasons, | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
The court was adjourned and closing speeches are expected to begin | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
College lecturers across Scotland are to go on strike. | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
They've voted overwhelmingly for action in a long-running pay | :05:37. | :05:38. | |
Their union says there will be a national one-day strike the week | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
after next and says the action could quickly escalate. | :05:46. | :05:47. | |
Let's talk now to our education correspondent Jamie McIvor who's | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
It is a complicated pay dispute but essentially linked to the return of | :05:51. | :06:12. | |
national pay bargaining in colleges. The main issue for many colleges is | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
the planned 1% national pay rise, along with differences between what | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
lecturers earn a different colleges, despite doing similar jobs. | :06:22. | :06:28. | |
According to the further education lecturers' Association there are | :06:29. | :06:30. | |
disparities of up to ?10,000 per year. The plan is for a national | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
one-day strike a week on Thursday but it could escalate very quickly. | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
One plan would see national strikes three days a week every week | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
following the Easter break. This has the potential to become a major | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
running national strike in the run-up to the Scottish election. | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
There has been a big shake-up in the college sector. Has that been part | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
of the issue that has exercised college lecturers? Well, the dispute | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
of the issue that has exercised itself is strictly over pay but | :07:04. | :07:04. | |
there has been that big shake-up in itself is strictly over pay but | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
the college sector in recent years. Jobs have gone, budgets are down and | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
there has been a big drop in the number of part-time students. These | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
are controversial issues for some and I doubt we will hear them raised | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
by some who go on strike. Although the dispute is strictly about pay | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
and pay alone. The body that represents Scotland's colleges has | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
issued a statement. It says the pay deal on offer is the best possible | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
in what it describes as the current difficult financial situation, and | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
the Scottish Government says a strike would be in nobody's | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
interests and is calling on both sides to get together to try to find | :07:46. | :07:47. | |
a solution. You're watching Reporting | :07:48. | :07:48. | |
Scotland from the BBC. Still to come: An insight | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
into Canned Laughter, a new play which combines | :07:52. | :07:53. | |
the experiences of three of the country's best | :07:54. | :07:55. | |
known comedy actors. In sport, Andy Murray gets Britain | :07:56. | :08:08. | |
off to a winning start in the Davis Cup match against Japan. And can the | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
championship leaders get the better of premiership opposition in the | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
Scottish cup quarterfinals? They drive people mad | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
and are costing councils millions So now Edinburgh Council is setting | :08:19. | :08:20. | |
up a special squad to tackle It is to spend ?180,000 | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
on an intensive programme of repairs It is a full-time job, but a | :08:25. | :08:45. | |
temporary solution. These teams are out with a quick fix to a problem | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
that comes around every year. For regular users, the state of the | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
roads is a constant concern. One minute you are driving and the next | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
minute, straight into a pothole. Then you are driving away, so you | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
don't really take heed of what to do about it. You just drive on. I ride | :09:07. | :09:13. | |
a bicycle in town a lot, and there are a lot of serious potholes that | :09:14. | :09:20. | |
could really crush a wheel. They should be filled. The bus ride from | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
the airport was horrendous. One of the most rattling rides I have had | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
for a long while. Up and down the country, it seems the streets are | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
littered with potholes. Here in Edinburgh, councils acknowledge | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
there has been an increase this year, which is why they have set up | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
special teams to fix them. The council says it will also invest in | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
permanent repairs in targeted areas. We are looking at rolling out a new | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
permanent repairs in targeted areas. surface, so we can do more roads and | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
it means they will not get into that condition. We are looking at a | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
particular problem at bus stops and reinforcing bus stops in certain | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
areas with heavy numbers of buses coming in and out. We are looking at | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
every way we can to prevent us getting to the situation where the | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
roads are in such poor condition. It is also encouraging residents to | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
report defects to a dedicated website. Cyclists want a long-term | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
improvement. Riding to work should be pleasant and enjoyable, but going | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
with the potholes, it is rough and not as safe, because you have to | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
keep avoiding them. If you go into them, you might come off. In | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
Edinburgh, the council say that the pothole patrol is part of a ?50 | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
million investment in the roads. The former TV weather presenter | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
Fred Talbot has appeared at Dumfries Sheriff Court on charges | :10:48. | :10:49. | |
of indecent assault. The 66-year-old from | :10:50. | :10:51. | |
Greater Manchester appeared in private on a petition containing | :10:52. | :10:52. | |
ten charges of indecent assault It's understood the offences | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
relate to a 13-year period The case was continued without plea | :10:56. | :11:04. | |
and he was remanded in custody. British forces still have a crucial | :11:05. | :11:16. | |
role to play in Afghanistan Next week on Reporting Scotland | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
we have two special reports from Kabul where the troops | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
from the two Scots battalion Combat operations ended more than a | :11:25. | :11:38. | |
year ago and thousands of British troops pulled out of Helmand. But | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
hundreds of Scots troops are back in troops pulled out of Helmand. But | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
Afghanistan, in Kabul. Find out why and what they are doing on BBC Radio | :11:46. | :11:50. | |

which are to operate on the Glasgow subway. | :11:55. | :11:56. | |
They're being built as part of the first major overhaul | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
Here's our transport correspondent, David Miller. | :12:00. | :12:08. | |
They call it the clockwork Orange, a 19th-century subways serving a | :12:09. | :12:15. | |
They call it the clockwork Orange, a 21st-century city. The subway and | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
its famous shuttle are a much loved part of Glasgow life. Today's news | :12:22. | :12:27. | |
means that we now know these ageing carriages are heading to the end of | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
their working life. The subway has been repeatedly upgraded over the | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
years but this latest overhaul promises to be the most radical yet. | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
17 new train sets coming from Switzerland. The trains arriving in | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
2020 will be driverless, smoother and quieter. For the first time, | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
wheelchair users will have dedicated spaces. This is an opportunity for | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
us and the people of Glasgow. The passenger will see a totally | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
different experience, a much better ride. The frequency will be improved | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
and also we can lengthen the period we operate. The subway will close | :13:09. | :13:16. | |
for a month this summer to allow major engineering work to be carried | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
for a month this summer to allow out. Drivers have already been told | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
they will be offered jobs elsewhere on the subway. But what do the | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
public make of the plans for driverless trains, increasingly | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
commonplace in cities around the world? It looks good. Modern. We | :13:31. | :13:37. | |
will miss the orange colour but it has a bit of a link to the colour | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
everyone is used to, so I think it looks good. Do you notice anything | :13:42. | :13:49. | |
missing? The driver. Would you feel happy on that? Yes. They do that in | :13:50. | :13:56. | |
Australia. There is bad news for die-hard subway fans, its days are | :13:57. | :14:08. | |
numbered. The movement will be engineered out, and it will be a | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
smoother ride for passengers. There will still be a bit of a shimmy in | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
there. Passenger numbers have steadily fallen over the decades. | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
Bosses are hoping their decision to invest ?200 million in new trains | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
and equipment will help reverse that trend. | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
A look at other stories from across the country. | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
The operators of Inverness Airport have announced plans | :14:36. | :14:37. | |
The investment will almost double the size of the departure lounge | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
and create a new arrivals hall for international passengers. | :14:44. | :14:53. | |
It is timely, because at the beginning of May we have KLM joining | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
us and at the end of May we have British Airways joining, so it is | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
important we put in the capacity to cater for increased demand. | :15:04. | :15:05. | |
Demolition of the St James Centre in Edinburgh | :15:06. | :15:07. | |
The shopping centre is due to be knocked down as part | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
of an ?850 million retail, hotel, cinema and housing | :15:12. | :15:13. | |
redevelopment at the east end of Princes Street. | :15:14. | :15:27. | |
CCTV operators in Glasgow are going on a 48-hour strike | :15:28. | :15:29. | |
in the next few minutes in a dispute over shift pay. | :15:30. | :15:32. | |
Community Safety Glasgow, who operate the network, | :15:33. | :15:34. | |
say there are "business continuity plans in place" to ensure | :15:35. | :15:36. | |
Major building work has been completed on Scotland's | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
The Wee Tea Plantation, at Amulree in Perthshire, | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
is on the site of a former sheep farm. | :15:45. | :15:46. | |
The company says it's waiting for tea-making equipment | :15:47. | :15:48. | |
The Scottish Courts Service has announced plans to build | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
a new justice centre in Inverness, to replace the present facilities | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
The site is adjacent to the city's main police station. | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
If planning permission is granted, construction work could | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
It will have all the components you expect for a court building but it | :16:02. | :16:17. | |
is also looking at the interactions before and after court, different | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
services in terms of support and alternatives to prosecution, and | :16:23. | :16:22. | |
support put in place after. Nicola Sturgeon is | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
the new official patron of Scotland's women's | :16:26. | :16:27. | |
national football team. Meeting the team this morning, | :16:28. | :16:28. | |
the First Minister said it was an exciting time | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
for women's football. The team takes on Spain on Tuesday, | :16:32. | :16:33. | |
International Women's Day. Let's catch up with the sport now. | :16:34. | :16:41. | |
Here's David. Andy Murray says there's plenty | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
in his game to be happy about after his first match | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
since the Australian Open. Murray beat Japan's Taro Daniel | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
in straight sets in the opening rubber of their Davis | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
Cup tie with Japan. The world number six, Kei Nishikori, | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
then levelled things up at 1-1, setting up a potential | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
winner-takes-all match Kheredine Idessane | :17:02. | :17:02. | |
reports from Birmingham. If you can't make the Davis Cup | :17:03. | :17:17. | |
team, you could always audition for the next best thing. The fan's form | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
was good, their confidence high. We did it last year against very tough | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
was good, their confidence high. We opposition, no reason why we can't | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
do it again. The next round will be the real tough one. Potentially | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
Serbia away. Please welcome, Andy Murray. And for the defending Davis | :17:35. | :17:43. | |
Cup champions, quite a fanfare. Suitably inspired, Andy Murray won | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
the first 11 points. The world number two underlined why he is | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
ranked 85 places higher than Japan's Taro Daniel. The Scot secured the | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
first set 6-1 in 28 minutes. That's up in the rafters. The second set | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
was more the better two, tied at 3-3 before Andy Murray broke, taking | :18:03. | :18:04. | |
was more the better two, tied at 3-3 three games in a row to take the | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
set. Midway through the final set, some vintage Murray rallying showed | :18:11. | :18:13. | |
evidence that he would not be delayed much further, and he racked | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
things up inside an hour and a half, the perfect start to Britain's title | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
defence. He settled more into the match in the second set. Some good | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
tennis, some long rallies. Tough games and entertaining points. I got | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
to test out my movement and quite a lot of different shots, which was | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
good. Most things were working well. Can still improve a view things, but | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
it was a good start. Just the kind of start Andy Murray was hoping for. | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
He might yet be picked to play with big brother Jamie in the doubles | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
tomorrow. If not, you will be rested for a potentially tie defining match | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
on Sunday against world number six, Kei Nishikori. | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
The Dundee manager Paul Hartley says his players must handle | :19:02. | :19:03. | |
the Ibrox atmosphere if they're to see off Rangers | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
The two sides go head-to-head for a place in the semi finals. | :19:08. | :19:12. | |
Today at the ticket office, it was a steady stream. Tomorrow at the | :19:13. | :19:25. | |
turnstiles, it will be a different story. The feel-good factor is back | :19:26. | :19:33. | |
and the fans never really went away. This was their side progressing | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
against Kilmarnock in the last round. Nicky Clark with a | :19:38. | :19:39. | |
last-minute winner to set up a tussle with the dark blues of | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
Tayside. Predictions, and a man who has played for both sides. I have to | :19:45. | :19:50. | |
say Rangers, purely because they are on the front foot. They have scored | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
in every game this season as well. But Dundee will go in there thinking | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
they can get an upset. Since their absence from Scotland's top league, | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
Rangers have played top-flight opposition on 12 occasions. Of those | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
12 games, they have won five. They haven't faced Dundee though. They | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
have to defend this corner... It's a Dundee side in fine form. They held | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
Celtic to a draw at Parkhead at the weekend and this sitter was all that | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
denied them victory. Is there a favourite? No. A cup game with two | :20:28. | :20:36. | |
good squads. Both teams try to make the semifinals. Rangers deservedly | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
knocked out Kilmarnock in the last round. It will be a cracking game. | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
For Rangers, this match is about more than Scottish cup progression. | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
Mark Warburton's side could be just months away from promotion to the | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
premiership. For them, it's a chance to show the fans that they are | :20:55. | :20:56. | |
ready. Edinburgh Rugby can boost | :20:57. | :20:58. | |
their prospects of reaching the Pro12 league play offs this evening, | :20:59. | :21:00. | |
but they'll need to beat the league The capital pro team won at home | :21:01. | :21:09. | |

that's one place outside Definitely, always had belief, and | :21:13. | :21:21. | |
have always set our sights really high in the league. Add a few minor | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
lapses in the last few away games but we will bounce back this weekend | :21:26. | :21:27. | |
and hopefully get another win. And you can hear and see Edinburgh | :21:28. | :21:33. | |

was a light bulb moment. We were worried about Andy and grants not | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
