    A New Proposition for Independence and the Parliament?

    Guests Kezia Dugdale, former Scottish Labour leader and leading figure in the 2014 Better Together campaign, and Stephen Noon, former SNP strategist, and formerly Chief Strategist for Yes Scotland, join us to discuss their new paper which looks at a new way forward for political discourse and decision making in Scotland. Geoff Aberdeen and Andy Maciver analyse their suggestions as we discuss the current state of Scottish politics, particularly in light of the recent Labour Party conference and the ongoing conversation about independence and devolution. We explore the need for a new approach to political discourse in Scotland, emphasising the importance of shared values and collaboration across party lines. Kezia and Stephen's paper proposes a framework for further devolution, a process for a second independence referendum, and a reevaluation of the fiscal framework to better serve the needs of the Scottish people.
