The 185th episode of the Scottish Independence Podcast is a talk by Broadcaster, writer and activist and former guest on the show, Billy Kay, about Scottish identity.
Have you ever noticed when you go abroad that the locals always seem to know what happened in 1437 in every wee nook and cranny of their town. Have you also noticed that this often isn't the case in Scotland? Why would that be? Kay explores this idea in the talk, but also provides some great stories from Scottish history, and there are a few revelations as well. For example, which UK Prime Minister may well have supported Scottish Independence? Which SNP MSP alledges that she was followed around the Houses of Parliament in the dark by Scottish Labour MPs.
Also, there's something about the special branch meddling in the Scottish Independence Movement.
All that and more, hope you enjoy.
