The Owning Our Futures event held in Edinburgh in October was a great opportunity to see our quest for independence in the context of other nations and regions across Europe who share similar aims. The delegates took part in three Q and A panels and brought their wisdom, experience and fresh thinking to the table. Organised by the Scottish Independence Convention and the International Committee for European Citizens and chaired by Lesley Riddoch, this was a positive and uplifting event.

We meet independent film maker Mairi Sutherland who has been making independent Scottish films for more than 20 years. Mairi has credits as Producer, Director, Screen Writer including the award winning film Red Rose, about the life and mysterious early death of Robert Burns at the age of 37. Mairi tells us about the making of the film back in 2004 and the changes she has seen in the film industry in Scotland and Hollywood since that time. The film is celebrating its 20th anniversary and Mairi is looking to arrange showings in cinemas, theatres and other venues to share the story and take part in audience discussions.
The film is available on Youtube here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mntIL0HhciY and is also available on DVD.

We chat to Scottish independence campaigner Liam McLaughlan who we first came across when he stood as Scottish Socialist Party candidate for Glasgow East in the General election.
Liam is a veteran of the legendary Radical Independence Campaign in 2014 and last month he gave the opening speech at a conference organised by left wing anti establishment group Conter to mark the 10 year anniversary of the independence referendum.
We invited him into the studio to talk about the event, his experiences and his thoughts for the future campaign.
Liam also had an article published in the National newspaper which you can read here https://www.thenational.scot/politics/24606241.indyrefs-10-year-anniversary-not-waste-another-decade/
Also look out for a follow up episode with highlights from other speakers at the conference coming soon.

Fiona and Marlene also report from some of the key locations of the tale, including the spine tingling visit to the plaque in Stirling's Broad Street where Baird and Hardie uttered their last words - "Remember Baird and Hardie".
Main themes:
00:00:31 The Stirling Trials
00:09:54 The Glasgow Trials
00:12:18 The Dumbarton Trials
00:15:30 The Paisley Trials
00:23:33 Retribution
00:24:56 Martyrs' Memorial
00:30:43 Australian Legacy
00:32: 25 Learning our own history

Scotland has practically the largest units of local government in the world. An average Scottish council has 175,000 people compared to an average across the EU of 10,000. There seems to be widespread consensus that something needs to be done about the over-centralisation of Scotland, but little agreement about what that should be.
A group of individuals from a range of backgrounds - activists, academics, trade unionists and more - have set themselves the task of raising the profile of this democratic deficit and engaging the public and politicians in a discussion about how to address it.
Indypodcasters have been presenting a series of podcasts on the topic of the kind of national conversation Scots are having and this seemed a perfect fit for that series so we went along to the launch event which was held in Edinburgh on 9th September 2024.
This is our recording of the public launch event. You can find out more from the website www.buildlocal.scot
You can also sign the declaration calling for citizens' assemblies to gather evidence and recommend solutions here https://buildlocal.scot/sign-the-declaration/
Panel presentations were:
00:01:11 Introduction by Joyce McMillan, Scotsman columnist and theatre critic
00:04:17 Esther Roberton, former co-ordinator of the Scottish Constitutional Convention
00:08:00 Dave Watson, Director of the Jimmy Reid Foundation
00:14:16 Willie Sullivan, Senior director for campaigns Electoral Reform Society
00:20:42 Ewan Aitken, Former Labour Councillor and COSLA spokesperson
00:28:36 Lesley Riddoch, Director of Nordic Horizons, filmmaker and award winning journalist
00:37:23 Q and A
00:07:39 Next steps

In this month's livestream Indypodcasters Marlene, Fiona and Lynne reflect on the Believe in Scotland 10th anniversary rally and other indy events, whether marches have had their day, the Labour party's disastrous first 2 months in power and how the the SNP is adjusting to life as a minority government.

On 18th September 2024 we marked the 10th anniversary of the historic first Scottish Independence Referendum, Indyref for short. During a passionate and exhilarating campaign, support for the Yes side grew from around 30% to over 50% before settling back at 45% on the day of the vote. In the words of Professor Sir John Curtace, the Yes side lost the vote but we won the campaign. Support for independence has hovered around the 50% mark for the last decade.
Campaign group Believe In Scotland organised events throughout Scotland to mark the occasion. The mood was reflective, but upbeat and determined. We are STILL YES.
Speeches from the Holyrood rally:
00:00:48 Gordon MacIntyre Kemp, founder of Believe In Scotland
00:12:56 Lesley Riddoch, award winning journalist, author, filmmaker
00:28:32 Richard Walker, Editor of the Sunday National

10 years on from the Independence Referendum we catch up with "artist, writer and deviant collagist" Greg Moodie. Greg's artwork and cartoons were iconic elements of the 2014 campaign and he has continued to produce political commentary in the guise of humour ever since.
Greg has a new book out this month called The Unbearable Stupidity of Being which you can get from his website at https://gregmoodie.com/shop/

After weeks of violent outbreaks in England, the far right racist contingent tried to bring their poison to Glasgow's George Square last weekend.
Glasgow was having none of it and organised an anti racist demonstration which drew a far bigger crowd than the racists could muster.
We reflect on the event with our guests Bill Ramsay and Isobel Lindsay and consider whether Scotland's distinctive national culture is enough to protect us from these malignant influences.
The conversation ranges from our sense of our own Scottishness, our colonial past, the haunting experience of the clearances, our shared values and the inevitable fracturing of the UK state.
We also consider whether the SNP can rise to the challenge of making the changes necessary to survive the 2026 Holyrood Elections.

Indypodcasters Fiona and Marlene mull over August's events with guest Lynne Dougan in our Livestream for August 2024. We share some of our escapades this month - Lynne was at Elgin, Fiona got stuck in the mud, Marlene celebrated Ukraine Day.
We also cover the Winter Fuel Payment debacle - Marlene has the stats! As Rachel Reeves perfects her eye roll, we delve into electricity prices here and in Norway, and no, we STILL don't know what GB Energy really is.
( NOTE: This episode has been edited to remove an incorrect statistic quoted in the discussion)
