Episode 11: Scottish Tories and Independence

from Unspun Live · host The Herald Politics Team

After Scottish Conservatives pledged to renew their party at their conference over the weekend, The Herald's political correspondents Hannah Brown and Kathleen Nutt analyse whether or not this is possible and if John Swinney's expected push for independence will strengthen them as the party in opposition. Political Editor Andrew Learmonth also speaks to Aberdeenshire and Kincardine MP Andrew Bowie who says his party needs to stop “self-flagellating” over past mistakes and instead focus on rebuilding trust with voters.
