    Political Change and Scottish Nationalism in Dundee 1973-2012 Thomas A W Stewart PhD Thesis University of Edinburgh 2019 Abstract Prior to the 2014 independence referendum, the Scottish National Party’s strongest bastions of support were in rural areas. The sole exception was Dundee, where it has consistently enjoyed levels of support well ahead of the national average, first replacing the Conservatives as the city’s second party in the 1970s before overcoming Labour to become its leading force in the 2000s. Through this period it achieved Westminster representation between 1974 and 1987, and again since 2005, and had won both of its Scottish Parliamentary seats by 2007. This performance has been completely unmatched in any of the country’s other cities. Using a mixture of archival research, oral history interviews, the local press and memoires, this thesis seeks to explain the party’s record of success in Dundee. It will assess the extent to which the character of the city itself, its economy, demography, geography, history, and local media landscape, made Dundee especially prone to Nationalist politics. It will then address the more fundamental importance of the interaction of local political forces that were independent of the city’s nature through an examination of the ability of party machines, key individuals and political strategies to shape the city’s electoral landscape. The local SNP and its main rival throughout the period, the Labour Party, will be analysed in particular detail. The thesis will also take time to delve into the histories of the Conservatives, Liberals and Radical Left within the city and their influence on the fortunes of the SNP.

  • RAY FISHER ROSS 1940 - 2011 Early Years in Barra and Vatersay Where Her Family Had Lived for Several Generations
    Born RAY GALBRAITH FISHER on 26 November 1940, Ray was the third child of Marion MacDonald and John Fisher. Marion, although born in Glasgow, was a native Gaelic speaker who spent most of her RAY FISHER ROSS 1940 - 2011 early years in Barra and Vatersay where her family had lived for several generations. John was a retired ..and some “Ray” favourite songs Police Inspector of the Marine Division in Glasgow. Prior to Ray’s birth, John and Marion had had Jean and Archie; following on, there would be Joyce, Cindy, Audrey and Cilla. All seven children were born in Havelock Street in the west end of Glasgow. John Fisher once remarked that if you threw a stone in Havelock Street, you would hit a Fisher. That would be at your peril! Music had always been in the Fisher home, with John singing light opera, and Marion with her Gaelic repertoire. Ray’s musical introduction was probably down to brother Archie, who one day turned up with a guitar – origins unknown. After an initial foray into the skiffle phenomenon, they teamed up with a fiddler – the late Bobby Campbell – labelled themselves the Wayfarers, and launched into a mixture of American folk and Scottish material. About this time, Ray was very much influenced by the late Norman Buchan, M.P. Norman, then a teacher, together with his wife, Janey, had been stalwarts of Glasgow's budding folk scene. On one occasion they invited a number of rising young singers to their Partick home to meet the great song I used tae think, when I wis wee, that it wasna really fair, carrier and traveller Jeannie Robertson (who later received an MBE for services to traditional music).
