  Scot Goes Popcast Episode 80: Scotland wants OUT of Burnham's United Kingdom PRISON, shows dramatic independence poll

  Aug 11, 20269 min

  After several weeks we finally have the first full-scale Scottish poll since Andy Burnham became Prime Minister. It's a Find Out Now poll for The National - and just like the majority of polls over the last eighteen months, it shows that Scotland wants to be an independent country.

  Scot Goes Popcast Episode 79: Bafflement as Hassan claims 1979 devo referendum is proof that Scotland is in a "voluntary union"

  Aug 9, 202619 min

  Has the world gone mad? It certainly appears that way, as Robin McAlpine's preposterous article suggesting that Scotland should not do a thing to try to win independence until there is a 75% supermajority in favour of it is followed up a few days later by an article from Gerry Hassan defending the UK government's denial of Scotland's right to self-determination, and bizarrely offering the 1979 devolution referendum (in which Scotland voted for devolution but didn't get it) as supposed proof that Scotland is in a "voluntary union". Let's try to make some sense of all this.

  Scot Goes Popcast Episode 78: Robin McAlpine is wrong - Scotland must use the BALLOT BOX, not opinion polls, to win independence

  Aug 7, 202615 min

  Robin McAlpine penned one of the most dangerous articles of the year a few days ago - dangerous because, if the independence movement is foolish enough to pay heed to his advice, we would stop trying to win independence via the ballot box and try to do it via opinion polls. That's not merely a grotesque parody of the principle of democratic self-determination, it's also daft simply because opinion polls are largely conducted (and their methodology determined) by people who are caught up in the British establishment mindset that Scotland cannot possibly become independent and cannot possibly want to become independent.

  Scot Goes Popcast Episode 77: If nuclear deterrence is supposed to work, does PALESTINE need nuclear weapons?

  Aug 6, 20266 min

  Eighty-one years to the day since the first use of a nuclear weapon in warfare, it is still the establishment consensus in the UK that having nuclear weapons puts us at *less* risk of nuclear attack because of the supposed "deterrent" effect. But if the deterrence principle is sound, surely no country in the world needs nuclear weapons for its own safety more than the State of Palestine?

  Scot Goes Popcast Episode 76: The BBC's attempts to sabotage the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games

  Aug 4, 20266 min

  An article in The Guardian yesterday spelt it out - the BBC put in a derisory bid for the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games, far lower than they bid four years ago for the Birmingham Games, knowing full well that this would leave the organisers with "no choice" but to go with a pay-channel. This was a clear attempt to sabotage the Glasgow Games by starving it of the publicity of free-to-air coverage for the first time in any Commonwealth Games since the 1950s. No such problems for Birmingham and their hosting of the European Athletics Championships later this month - that will, naturally, be receiving lavish coverage on the BBC.
