Liam McIlvanney - And Be a Nation Again
Sunday Morning marks St Andrews Day on November 30 with Professor McIlvanney, who holds the Stuart Chair in Scottish Studies at the University of Otago. Liam's keen for Scots to vote for independence in a referendum scheduled for 2014. A former speech writer for Scottish National Party leader and Scotland's First Minister, Alex Salmond, he talks to Chris about the mood of the nation, the emotional tug for independence, and the hard-headed economic decisions that the split from England would require.
