IndyRef: Blair McDougall

Blair McDougall was the Chief Executive of the Better Together campaign during the independence referendum in 2014. Listen to his reflections on the campaign, and whether he thinks there will be a second referendum. He remembers the night of "the poll" which showed Yes Scotland taking a lead - he'd left his phone in a taxi and so couldn't call anyone. Blair talks at length about the strengths of Alistair Darling as a campaign spokesperson. Email your thoughts to hello@holyroodsources.com. Hosted on Acast.
