In memory of Alex Salmond – The Spectator's final interview with the former leader of Scotland

In October, Scotland's former first minister Alex Salmond died aged 69. His family described him as “a devoted and loving husband, a fiercely loyal brother, a proud and thoughtful uncle and a faithful and trusted friend”. This debate between former Spectator editor Fraser Nelson and Alex Salmond was recorded in January 2024, in the week Nicola Sturgeon gave evidence at the Covid Inquiry and the UK reflected on 25 years of Scottish devolution. Following his death, Fraser paid tribute to the former first minister, writing " only a handful of politicians can claim to have genuinely changed history: Alex Salmond is one of them. Scottish politics will be far duller by his passing. And British politics has been changed – changed, utterly – by his life." // SUBSCRIBE TO THE SPECTATOR Get 12 issues for £12, plus a free £20 John Lewis/Waitrose voucher https://www.spectator.co.uk/tvoffer // FREE PODCASTS FROM THE SPECTATOR Hear more from The Spectator's journalists on their podcasts, covering everything from the politics of the UK, US and China, to religion, literature, lifestyle and more. https://www.spectator.co.uk/podcasts/ // FOLLOW US   / spectator     / officialspectator     / the-spectator     / spectator1828     / thespectatormagazine   Theme song written and performed by Jon Barker © 2020 Jonathan Stewart Barker Publisher Jonathan Stewart Barker 100%, administered by prsformusic.com Recording © 2020 Jonathan Stewart Barker 100%, administered by ppl.com
