Bairns not Bombs
Alex Salmond delivered a passionate speech at the SNP conference which focused on using a Yes vote as a platform to build a better Scotland. In one part of his speech he gave a "cast iron guarantee" that Trident would be removed from an independent Scotland and instead "we would build a system of childcare that will be the envy of the world."
He also spoke of how independence would free the Labour Party from Westminster control and enable the party to return to its core values, many of which are shared by the SNP.
Nicola Sturgeon in her speech, the day before, had also spoken of a Labour Party losing its way by chasing Westminster priorities and not those of Scotland.
Videos and transcripts of both speeches can be found on the Yes Highland TV pages:
