True Grit

It's a podcast of two halves today.The news that Celtic Connections has been awarded £100,000 from the Scottish Government's Expo Fund to commission eight new pieces of work for the Grit Orchestra sparks off part one. Part the second moves from music to history  examining the wartime nationalist narrative of Brexiters and wondering if Scotland can awake from this nightmare. There's a wee bit of reflection on Angus Robertson's new Progress Scotland venture and lots of the other usual nonsense.
