**The Scottish party leaders came face-to-face in the second televised leaders’ debate on STV, and in episode 5 of The FFS Show we fact-checked a claim from each of them.**

Mags and Ali looked at statements from [Nicola Sturgeon](https://www.theferret.scot/tag/nicola-sturgeon/), [Douglas Ross](https://www.theferret.scot/tag/douglas-ross/), [Anas Sarwar](https://www.theferret.scot/tag/anas-sarwar/), [Patrick Harvie](https://www.theferret.scot/tag/patrick-harvie/) and [Willie Rennie](https://www.theferret.scot/tag/willie-rennie/) about education, the NHS and living wage which were made during the debate.
