THE National's podcast is back for another week to keep you informed about all things independence.
State of the Union, hosted by Stephen Paton, was launched in September last year to keep Scots up to date with all the latest developments in Scotland’s campaign to be an independent country.
This week's episode brings you the latest updates from Holyrood, Westminster and beyond as part of our ever-expanding digital service.

Listen to the full episode on Soundcloud below or on Spotify.
Stay tuned for future episodes every Friday at 12pm.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
