Cox: ‘Scotland first’

SUCCESSION star Brian Cox has said he had to put Scotland “first” when asked to explain why he had switched from Labour to supporting independence.

The award-winning actor, who stars as Logan Roy in the hit series, said that Scotland had “always been sidelined” – pointing to the Brexit vote as evidence for this.

Almost two thirds (62%) of Scots who took part in the 2016 referendum voted to stay in the European Union.
