Sir Tom Devine claimed politicians in London who are no longer worried by a prospect of IndyRef2 are "living in a fool's paradise".And the top historian said the Grim Reaper "may be on the side of the SNP's position" as those under 40 tend to be strongly in favour of independence.Devine, who was raised in Motherwell, was speaking at an Edinburgh book festival event yesterday alongside Ciaran Martin, a former top civil servant who was involved in negotiating the terms of the 2014 referendum.The historian told an audience: "The Union is in greater danger than at any time since Prince Charles Edward Stewart led his Jacobite army across the border to England in 1745".
