‘Independence movement is in need of a refresh’ – The National

The National front page this morning – summarised

• SCOTTISH actor Martin Compston has said he believes the Scottish independence movement is in need of a “refresh” – and he’s optimistic youngsters will help pave the way forward. Compston, known for his turns in hit shows like Line of Duty, spoke with The National ahead of the release of the second season of Amazon Prime’s The Rig. “I still believe in it (independence), I’ve made a conscious decision, I think especially online and stuff now people are just so f****** angry and shouting at each other and you can waste a lot of energy arguing with people who, really, aren’t going to have their minds changed one way or another,” he said.
