On this week's episode John Wight sits down with former First Minister of Scotland and leader of the Scottish Labour Party, Henry McLeish, to discuss the fallout from Brexit. In a time of profound political and economic uncertainty, what is the future for the EU and Britain? And what now for Scottish independence? Is it time for Scotland, which voted to remain in the EU, to finally detach itself from Westminster and go its own way? Will there be a second referendum? They discuss this and more.
We also take to the streets of Edinburgh, Scotland's capital, to ask what Scots themselves think of the idea of a second referendum.
