Can we learn from the past and build a successful Scotland? Brian Taylor investigates and takes your calls.
Can we learn from the past and build a successful Scotland? Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Scotland's political editor, Brian Taylor, searches for the formula which might revive our economic hopes.
Scotland is struggling. The economy is in recession, output is down, unemployment up and public spending is about to face a severe squeeze, threatening yet more jobs. Plenty cause, then, for wintry gloom.
But let's try to take the longer view, inspired by the second series of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's "A History of Scotland". In the latest programme, Neil Oliver ably and succinctly brings the story up to the close of the 20th century, including the financial tensions of those times.
Brian Taylor and guests take your calls, texts and emails.
