Can Scotland really become independent by May 2027?

At the latest Pensioners for Indy meeting, guest speaker Graeme McCormick laid out his nine-step roadmap to Scottish independence — and sparked a lively, thought-provoking debate.

Some in the audience argued that Scotland is a colony. Others insisted that Scots are sovereign. Can both views be true?

Graeme says no — and challenges us to think deeply about what independence actually means.

The British state claims Scotland is in a voluntary union, yet can’t explain how we might voluntarily leave that union. So which is it — a union or a trap?

Tune in for a fascinating and fiery discussion about sovereignty, legality, and Scotland’s future in (or out of) the UK.
