I don’t think there would be a political party I’d ever feel compelled to join, my vote has flipped between Lib Dem, labour and snp over the years. My political viewpoint could probably be best described as anti Tory if anything.

Totally understand that.

I joined the SNP in 2006 and for many years was very happy with the party and what it was trying to do.

After Sturgeon took over I became gradually disillusioned and even from a basic business perspective it was clear a rot had set in. The treatment of Mark McDonald and Alex Salmond caused me to leave.

Now I’ve been inspired to return to help people like Joanna Cherry to retake the party, restore its soul and oust Sturgeon’s cabal.

We need a bold, revolutionary style of leadership to achieve independence.
