VOTING for the Alba Party in the regional list is in Scotland’s “national interest”, Alex Salmond has said. In an address yesterday, the former First Minister launched his new party’s election campaign where he repeatedly pushed for a “super-majority” of MSPs to be elected in support of independence. He also outlined his party’s view on how independence could be achieved if most MSPs backed the goal. Within the first week of the new parliament, Salmond said, the Scottish Parliament should instruct the Scottish Government to start negotiations with the UK, creating a “standing independence convention” formed of elected representatives.
