This is The Rattlecap's new Holyrood blog.
The election of 12th December has put British politics onto a new track, and has set our constitutional politics on a collision course.
Two administrations, two mandates, two nationalisms.
What goes on inside Holyrood's steel-spangled walls has never been more important, and never more in need of scrutiny. We intend to use this space as a forum for discussion of Scottish issues, and Scottish politics.
That discussion will take the form of news, commentary, analysis and sketch writing.
