:00:32. > :00:34.May saw its worst ever result at a Holyrood election,
:00:35. > :00:37.relegated to third place behind the Tories, but with no sign
:00:38. > :00:46.of the top two changing, will things change in message?
:00:47. > :00:49.The reality is, they are not using the powers they've got

:03:09. > :03:14.vote, many people in Scotland think the defining issue is whether there

:03:20. > :03:23.Dugdale tackle that had on. We cannot risk the uncertainty of
:03:24. > :03:26.another referendum and we will vote against any Rapunzel for a second
:03:27. > :03:32.independence referendum in this Parliament. Despite the public show
:03:33. > :03:40.of support for each other there are many in labour who still feel that
:03:41. > :03:46.Jeremy Corbyn is the right person to lead the party. Many people still
:03:47. > :03:52.don't believe he can lead them to an election victory. Iain Murray who
:03:53. > :03:56.resigned from the Shadow Cabinet made it clear he would only return

:04:25. > :04:26.the Queen's former surgeon, have been cleared of wrongdoing
:04:27. > :04:28.after a series of investigations said to have cost
:04:29. > :04:34.five million pounds. The General Medical Council launched
:04:35. > :04:36.the probe after NHS Grampian handed over an internal report
:04:37. > :04:39.into the behaviour of the doctors. Kevin Keane sent this report
:04:40. > :04:47.earlier this evening. These investigations have been
:04:48. > :04:52.rumbling on for the last two years and they focus on senior surgeons
:04:53. > :04:57.and medical staff here at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. Among them is the
:04:58. > :05:04.Queen's former surgeon, seven other people were also investigated. Two
:05:05. > :05:09.reports that have been published over that time into their behaviour
:05:10. > :05:13.and practices. One was said to be critical of all eight individuals
:05:14. > :05:20.and it was passed to the General medical Council for consideration.
:05:21. > :05:23.They have considered all the recommendations in their report and
:05:24. > :05:28.have announced that they have been cleared of all allegations against
:05:29. > :05:36.them and the case against all eight individuals has been closed. This
:05:37. > :05:46.raises lots of questions about NHS Grampian's handling of this
:05:47. > :05:49.investigation and that in the investigation's report on how they
:05:50. > :05:56.contradict what they see no to be saying. NHS Grampian, incidentally,
:05:57. > :06:01.say they don't recognise the ?5 million figure but they won't
:06:02. > :06:07.comment on the price tag associated with it. Instead, they simply say
:06:08. > :06:12.they will get an providing the high quality of medical surgery services
:06:13. > :06:21.that they offer. The Queen's surgeon says he is gratified to be cleared
:06:22. > :06:25.of the case and he's thanked his colleagues and patients who have
:06:26. > :06:27.supported him over the last few years but has now resigned from his

:06:38. > :06:39.uninjured after the vessel appeared But the incident has
:06:40. > :06:42.raised local concerns. It was just after 11am yesterday
:06:43. > :06:49.when the MV Hebrides appeared to steam out of control
:06:50. > :06:52.when she approached Lochmaddy The ferry struck a number of
:06:53. > :06:58.pontoons, and then struck the pier before the crew managed
:06:59. > :07:02.to berth her successfully. Eyewitnesses said the vessel
:07:03. > :07:05.had approached the harbour described the incident as
:07:06. > :07:12.the result of a technical failure. The crew managed to take
:07:13. > :07:16.control of the ship There were 45 passengers
:07:17. > :07:23.and 31 crew on board, Divers have assessed
:07:24. > :07:26.the whole of the ship today, and the Marine Accident

:08:13. > :08:15.to the ferry terminal. At the time, people
:08:16. > :08:19.were happy with the siting, Caledonian McBrayne
:08:20. > :08:29.say they are putting on additional sailings to other routes
:08:30. > :08:31.to try to minimise disruption caused to the Hebrides being
