To mark the fifth anniversary of the 2014 independence referendum, CommonSpace’s September forum will explore what we can learn from the successes and failures of that enormous mass movement for independence.

We will also look at what has changed since and what the prospects are for the independence movement to seize the initiative in the Brexit crisis to deliver another referendum, and a majority for independence.

Panellists include (more TBC):

- Robin McAlpine, Common Weal

- Cat Boyd, Radical Independence Campaign

- Mary Lockhart, Labour Councillor
