The End of the SNP’s Imperial Era, What Comes Next and the Politics of Liberation

"The next few years, whoever is elected will be more challenging and difficult for the SNP, but from recognising the scale of crisis and challenge the party is in, can come renewal, growth and the next generation of independence.

But that only happens if people can have the courage to break with the fairy tales and deceptions of recent times and embrace light, openness, honesty and complexity. That is a tall order after what has come before, but the SNP and independence have no option but to break with the past (for all its successes), or they will be defined by the excesses and mistakes of that past."
