National Security Threat? Awa and Beil yerr Heid Lammy
Description
In this episode our guests Isobel Lindsay and Bill Ramsay help unpack the deeper message behind Deputy PM David Lammy's extraordianry claim that the Scottish Government is a "national security threat".
But which nation is he talking about? From a Scottish perspective, many argue that Scotland's continued place within the UK poses the greater risk to Scotland's own national security.
We also revisit a powerful highlight from the recent Scottish CND conference: former Scottish Labour leader Richard Leonard's eloquen and forceful speech challenging the Uk Labour Government's increasingly militarised foreign and economic policies.
Join us for a forthright conversation about power, security and Scotland's future role in the world.
