Will independence really make Scotland nuclear free?

We speak to the Vice-Chair of Scottish CND about the latest Scottish Government white paper

Independence and the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons

The latest paper on independence produced by the Scottish Government as part of the "Building a New Scotland" series focusses on Scotland's role in the world.

It has sparked outrage among SNP members and anti-Trident campaigners as it fails to support the longstanding policy around signing up to the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.

To explore this issue, Jonathon Shafi speaks to Isobel Lindsay, who is Vice-Chair of Scottish CND. In addition she is a longstanding and respected independence campaigner, who has been active in politics since the early 1960s.

The interview is full of strategic insights and historical detail, and reveals how fundamental the absence of the TPNW in the document is to both the peace and independence movements.
