He completely changed Scottish politics by propelling the SNP into government, including a historic majority at Holyrood, and putting the question of independence to the people for the first time.

Find out only in The Courier.

Our in-depth interview will tell his story of the referendum, in his own words, for the first time.

We will also reveal the secrets of his First Minister’s Questions preparation, what it’s really like being the head of government, and his passions outside of politics.
