Former first minister Alex Salmond criticizes the SNP for failing to lead the independence movement and allowing political opportunities to pass Scotland by. He emphasizes the need for a credible route to independence, stating that the 'how' is as important as the 'why'.
The former first minister is expected to hit out at his former party during his speech at the Alba conference in Glasgow tomorrow.
"Those unwilling or unable to face Westminster down have hidden behind arguments of process in stringing the Scottish people along. "In fact most Scots know why. They live through it in the day-to-day challenge of trying to make ends meet in a very British cost-of-living crisis. "Those in privileged positions in the Scottish Parliament may think that they have all the time in the world, and some may even have begun to believe that the independence movement exists to keep them in those positions.
