AUDIO: The state of play after the First Minister's statement

A discussion with David Jamieson

This is the first audio post (click “listen now” above) on Independence Captured. As we approach 500 subscribers this will become a more regular feature as we gear up for the launch our own podcast, as promised.

I joined Conter editor, David Jamieson, as part of his Patreon series to survey the political situation after Nicola Sturgeon’s latest update on independence. Most of the analysis is based on this week’s newsletter.

Has the trajectory since 2014 - which has seen the narrowing of the movement into an electoral and party strategy - finally reached its logical conclusion?

As ever, disagreement and criticism is most welcome.

Note: when we talk about “Plan B” we are referencing the idea of a “de facto” referendum via the next general election.
