As Scotland debates land reform we ask Scottish Land Reform Minister, Aileen McLeod is it land reform or a land grab?

There's a warning to people walking in the countryside and people fishing on rivers after a man from Somerset is seriously injured by Giant Hogweed - it's a tall plant with large umbrella-like blooms of small white flowers. Dean Simmons suffered burns and blisters and his leg will take months to recover.
