You always think that all the apologists, cheerleaders & sycophants - on both sides of the Atlantic - will surely cut the umbilical *this time*. But they never do. And the rest of us still aren’t equipped to deal with the full horror of what that means.

Thanks for a great chat gals! Finland proves Scots needn't apologise for being a small-medium sized, northern, progressive, peaceful state. We just need the tools to the trade - control with independence - to start motoring.
In this week's podcast we chat with @lesleyriddoch.bsky.social about her new film about Finland and some of the key concepts that Scotland can learn from including education, trust, security, practicality and much more.

The next days and months and years will require this from us — and demand our courage. Be prepared.

No podcast this week. Fraser is on anniversary holiday. But there's an extra podcast about the Assisted Dying Bill with sponsor Liam McArthur MSP. Final vote likely in March. 76% public & MSPs support him but not some party leaders. So decision time ahead for us all. lesleyriddoch.com/podcast
