Nicola Sturgeon announces the Scottish government is to look at legislation ahead of a new independence referendum

Scotland’s first minister, after a cabinet meeting Saturday morning (HERE), announces that she will begin framing legislation to lead to a second referendum about the separation of Scotland from the United Kingdom, bringing to an end a 300 year old partnership.

There is every chance that Scotland will this time vote to separate.

Vote Leave dismissed this as unlikely during the campaign but many now fear the break up of our United Kingdom.
