Superb listen. Cannot find fault with anything either of you have said. Faint hearts never won fair country. Thank you Roddy, Mark, Craig Murray, Stuart Campbell et al for helping keep the torch burning. Add Tommy Sheridan to that list as well. Caught up with his appearance on your show this morning. I too left snp in frustration after the last straw of FM’s Jan31 capitulation. I’ll spend my cash supporting fundraisers for true yessers instead. RB Cunninghame Graham left the labour movement which he helped found after it had been taken over by “pisspot socialists”
Sadly, I fear, he would have described those in charge of the snp as “pisspot yessers” On an optimistic note. Eck is looking fit, healthy, slimmer and recharged on his latest Alex Salmond show.

Brilliant guest. it is heartening to know that their are still prominent Independence supporters out there unafraid to put their point of view across. They are being drowned out a bit just now.
I really enjoyed this discussion as I do most of these podcasts.
I have a query though… I looked at Barrhead Boy on Twitter and I have been blocked.
This is very odd as I am rarely on Twitter and even more rarely make a comment. When I do, it’s always civil and reasonable. And I have never logged onto the Barrhead Boy twitter page before.
Absolutely nailed it when you said Peter Murrell should have gone the minute Nicola Sturgeon became SNP leader – no business organisation would allow this relationship at this level, and assuming the forthcoming inquiry is allowed to run without any interference, it will become even more obvious that it can’t continue.
There is a big part of me that wants Nicola to come out of this untarnished (why are you looking at me like that lads ???) but whatever else happens, as a Party member, I want to see Mr Murrell replaced. Immediately. It’s not a healthy, transparent way for the Party to operate and surely it can’t go on.
I agree with all of this and am so frustrated that we’re not getting any closer to independence. You guys have an ideas about what to do NOW? Can we afford to wait until Craig’s trial and hope and that shakes things up?
Where ther,s a will there,s a way Monica I hope we find it ..I want Independence ASAP.away fae all the S–t. Signed the Scottish Digital Covenant think that’s one way !!! I hope.

With you on that, every word. Piss pot yessers is spot on. Founders of the party must be realin and bealin in their graves.
Agreed Eleanor.

I shouldn’t have said unafraid, they are never afraid. Its just good to hear from them. Cheers.
Agreed Eleanor. And Gillies

Any ideas, Roddy?
Send me your twitter handle, the chances, are the fact you are rarely on, rarely tweet perhaps very few followers is the reason.
Excellent podcast and discussion
