ATTEMPTING to establish the truth in Scottish politics is a difficult business. One person’s black is another person’s white depending on where they sit along the independence-unionist axis. Everything is disputable, everything open to doubt, everything can be politicised. But there are little areas of agreement we can settle upon whether we’re pro or anti-independence, and it’s important to try to establish this common ground if we’re to engage in any meaningful discussion about Scotland’s constitutional future. Without some trusted points on the map, we’ll be lost in a confusion of our own making.
