:00:16. > :00:21.Give me your general message On Thursday we have an opportunity to
:00:22. > :00:25.make a positive statement about the kind of country we want Scotland to
:00:26. > :00:29.be. As this campaign's progressed, people have really seen what five
:00:30. > :00:33.more years of the Tories would mean. It would be deeper cuts to Public
:00:34. > :00:38.Services, it would be damaging for jobs and it would push more people
:00:39. > :00:42.into poverty. The reality is that in Scotland, the only way to stop the
:00:43. > :00:47.Tories, the only way to stop Theresa May getting a bigger majority is to
:00:48. > :00:51.vote SNP. A vote for Labour or the Liberals in Scotland simply risks
:00:52. > :00:55.splitting the anti-Tory vote and letting a Tory MP in the back door.
:00:56. > :00:59.If you want to vote for greater investment in Public Services and
:01:00. > :01:01.policies that lift people out of poverty, vote SNP and make sure we
:01:02. > :01:06.have strong voices in Westminster. Can I ask you about the events in
:01:07. > :01:08.London over the weekend and the implications for everybody's
:01:09. > :01:13.security? Theresa May came out in Downing Street saying enough is
:01:14. > :01:17.enough. Does that actually -- what does that actually mean to you? She
:01:18. > :01:20.has to outline what she thinks it means. Nobody can escape the fact
:01:21. > :01:24.that Theresa May's been Home Secretary for the past number of
:01:25. > :01:27.years before she was Prime Minister. She presided over significant cuts
:01:28. > :01:32.in policing in England and there is a lot of concern about that. Now,
:01:33. > :01:34.security is one of the most important priorities for any
:01:35. > :01:40.Government in Scotland where we are not immune at all from the threats,
:01:41. > :01:44.and we have invested to maintain police numbers and we have seen over
:01:45. > :01:47.times increases in the numbers of trained armed officers we have got.
:01:48. > :01:51.There must be a determination across all of the parties to challenge
:01:52. > :01:57.robustly extremism in all of its forms. As we do that, we have dot to
:01:58. > :01:59.make sure we pull people together, not divide or scapegoat any
:02:00. > :02:04.particular community. We have to make sure as well we don't undermine
:02:05. > :02:09.the freedoms and civil liberties of who we are. That is a difficult
:02:10. > :02:13.balance. How will the SNP tread the fine line between clamping down on
:02:14. > :02:20.extremism but also not invading people's privacy too much? Civil
:02:21. > :02:25.liberties are part of the values we have as a society. If we allow them
:02:26. > :02:30.to be undermined, the terrorists win and we don't want that to happen. Of
:02:31. > :02:34.course, it's important that we have police on our streets and it's
:02:35. > :02:38.important that at times we have higher police presences, armed
:02:39. > :02:43.officers, but we must make sure we protect the liberties that we all
:02:44. > :02:46.cherish. It's also really important we don't scapegoat a particular
:02:47. > :02:49.community. I'm talking specifically about the Muslim community.
:02:50. > :02:53.Terrorists that carry out horrific acts in the name of Islam are not
:02:54. > :02:57.acting on behalf of that faith, they are perverting the teachings of that
:02:58. > :03:00.faith. I think it's really important to pull people together to isolate
:03:01. > :03:06.and drive extremism out. That's going to be all the more important
:03:07. > :03:09.in the weeks and months ahead. By the time we get to the point of
:03:10. > :03:13.having more armed officers on the street, isn't that too late?
:03:14. > :03:17.Shouldn't we be doing more earlier on? I know you said you don't want
:03:18. > :03:20.to scapegoat a particular community but the people doing the terrorist
:03:21. > :03:24.acts aren't claiming their acts in the name of God? They are claiming
:03:25. > :03:27.it but I don't think that because somebody claims something is in the
:03:28. > :03:31.name of any particular faith that that should just be accepted. I know
:03:32. > :03:37.I represent a constituency in Glasgow with a very big Muslim
:03:38. > :03:39.population. Muslims in this country are as appalled as anybody else is
:03:40. > :03:43.when terrorist acts like this happen. The reality is, if you are a
:03:44. > :03:47.Muslim in this country, you are far more likely to be the victim of a
:03:48. > :03:52.terrorist attack than the perpetrator. Of course it's not just
:03:53. > :03:55.about police on the streets, it's about tackling extremism at source
:03:56. > :03:58.and we work very hard in Scotland with different faiths to make sure
:03:59. > :04:04.we are doing that. My point is, we are going to be more successful in
:04:05. > :04:07.doing that if we work in partnership with communities, not if we suggest
:04:08. > :04:11.that a particular community is the enemy. These are not easy issue,
:04:12. > :04:15.these are difficult challenges, all governments though have a
:04:16. > :04:19.responsibility to make sure they are doing everything possible to keep
:04:20. > :04:22.the population safe. That does sometimes require increased police
:04:23. > :04:27.presence on the streets, that's why in Scotland, unlike in the rest of
:04:28. > :04:30.the UK, we have maintained police numbers and increased policing
:04:31. > :04:36.numbers. The Government's putting together a report into who was
:04:37. > :04:41.funding extremist ideaology in the UK. It hasn't finished yet but there
:04:42. > :04:45.are rumours that it hasn't been published yet because it could be
:04:46. > :04:53.embarrassing. What is your take on that? That should be published.
:04:54. > :04:58.David Cameron gave an undertaking to look at that, look at the picture of
:04:59. > :05:03.funding for looking at that. I have a clear idea of the countries
:05:04. > :05:07.providing that funding. Theresa May said yesterday the fight against
:05:08. > :05:10.terrorism will sometimes involve difficult discussions and that's
:05:11. > :05:14.true at home but it's also going to be true overseas as well. The idea
:05:15. > :05:17.the Government can commission a report like this and think it can
:05:18. > :06:04.keep it hidden is unacceptable. I think she's got it wrong over the
:06:05. > :06:07.police cuts. I also think she's got it wrong over border guard cuts as
:06:08. > :06:11.well and indeed cuts to the Prison Service. I'm not sure that these
:06:12. > :06:15.comments have much legitimacy coming from someone like Jeremy Corbyn,
:06:16. > :06:20.someone who's called Hamas and Hezbollah as friends. I mean, to
:06:21. > :06:22.attack Theresa May on the issue of terrorism and it really is a weak
