  • On 18th September 2024 we marked the 10th anniversary of the historic first Scottish Independence Referendum, Indyref for short. During a passionate and exhilarating campaign, support for the Yes side grew from around 30% to over 50% before settling back at 45% on the day of the vote. In the words of Professor Sir John Curtace, the Yes side lost the vote but we won the campaign. Support for independence has hovered around the 50% mark for the last decade.

    Campaign group Believe In Scotland organised events throughout Scotland to mark the occasion. The mood was reflective, but upbeat and determined. We are STILL YES.

    Speeches from the Holyrood rally:

    00:00:48 Gordon MacIntyre Kemp, founder of Believe In Scotland

    00:12:56 Lesley Riddoch, award winning journalist, author, filmmaker

    00:28:32 Richard Walker, Editor of the Sunday National

  • After weeks of violent outbreaks in England, the far right racist contingent tried to bring their poison to Glasgow's George Square last weekend.

    Glasgow was having none of it and organised an anti racist demonstration which drew a far bigger crowd than the racists could muster.

    We reflect on the event with our guests Bill Ramsay and Isobel Lindsay and consider whether Scotland's distinctive national culture is enough to protect us from these malignant influences.

    The conversation ranges from our sense of our own Scottishness, our colonial past, the haunting experience of the clearances, our shared values and the inevitable fracturing of the UK state.

    We also consider whether the SNP can rise to the challenge of making the changes necessary to survive the 2026 Holyrood Elections.

    Every year Scottish CND organises events to commemorate this anniversary.

    Indypodcasters Fiona and Marlene were invited to record the Glasgow even at the peace tree in the grounds of Kelvingrove Art Gallery. It was a moving, yet uplifting event with songs and wonderful speakers sharing their stories such as the seeds from the "survivor tree", a ginko tree in Hiroshima which sprouted again following the bombing.

    We also had an interview with Jacqueline McLaren the Lord Provost of Glasgow about her role in the Mayors for Peace project and her determination to leave a lasting legacy of peace gardens in Glasgow parks.

  • The Battle of Falkirk took place on 22nd July 1298 and was a tragic loss for the Scots under William Wallace. His comrade Sir John de Graham, or Graeme, died in the battle and is buried at Trinity church in Falkirk.The De Graeme Society organise an annual commemoration of the battle and the brave Scots who gave their lives defending our freedom. This year's event, whilst a moving occasion, was also a family friendly day out with medieval market, battle re-enactments, performers, a town Crier and all sorts of other activities to engage, entertain and educate Scots in our own history.Indypodcasters Fiona and Marlene went along to Falkirk and this is their souvenir of the day.

    Following the shockwaves from the General Election result, we decided to revisit the topic of a national conversation for Scotland, starting with a fresh look at the conversation we had with Leanne Wood about the Welsh Constitutional Commission.

    Main themes:

    00:04:46 A healthy debate

    00:10:09 A democratic revolution

  • This month saw the 750th anniversary of the birth of one of Scotland's greatest heroes, Robert the Bruce.

    In this episode, filmed mainly on location in Bannockburn, we draw from three different accounts of the Bruce's most famous battle and attempt to pinpoint the most likely sites of the different phases of the battle. We also examine the military and strategic genius of a man whose plans for every eventuality were so thorough they even included his own escape from Hell! We also reveal secrets hidden in the last verse of Burn's famous poem Scots Wha Hae.

  • Why did Graeme McCormick decide to stand in the SNP leadership contest and why did he then withdraw his candidacy to allow John Swinney to be elected unopposed?

    We last chatted to Graeme McCormick in September 2023 about his proposals to dissolve the UK union and how that might come about (you can listen to that episode here https://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-axz4k-14a2c72 )

    Since then, Graeme has stood for the Presidency of the SNP but was beaten by Mike Russell. He brought his case to the SNP's independence strategy conference which Humza Yousaf held and most recently, announced his intention to stand in the latest SNP leadership contest. In the event, John Swinney was elected unopposed.

    But just why did Graeme withdraw his candidacy? And where does he think the independence campaign needs to go next?

    This is a podcast version of an episode of the TNT show on Independence Live's Youtube channel. As a live broadcast, their episode was plagued with technical issues which we have edited out.

    We spill the beans on the cost of that GB Energy logo!
