Where was the independence debate lost in 2014?

@geoffaberdein shares his thoughts as to where the 'Yes campaign' lost the race in 2014... will a new push for independence change things and convince more Scots to support the idea?

“We need to be turbocharging our efforts”

@geoffaberdein explains why he thinks that Jackdaw is so important as part of a transition to renewables… but why he thinks that at the moment it’s not possible for Scotland to run entirely on green energy.

“She was quite nasty to them”

@akmaciver suggests that John Swinney will achieve independence by attracting the centre-ground and highlighting ways that an independent Scotland could leave voters better off.

A view from inside Scotland’s civil service

@calumAM reads a message sent into the podcast from a senior figure within Scotland’s civil service.

They claim that they are forced to work in outdated and dysfunctional offices, and that the Scottish Government’s recruitment freeze has created a situation where there are few prospects for growth.
