(of course the Torygraph isn't exactly renown for veracity, but this is the [i]opposite [/i]of the story I'd expect from them if they were lying again).

Nicola Sturgeon has actually announced it.

Nicola's aspirations are no secret. However the hard fact is she doesn't have the power to do a unilateral referendum.

@malizz: well on one hand, we have you and your bald assertions. On the other hand, we have multiple cites from separate news sources. Which do you think more credible?

Remember they said Clinton was going to win, and that the EU vote would go for remain.

Of course, they normally report the past accurately, but future events are by nature speculative.

@malizz: They underestimated the power of the spite vote; however, that same effect will work in favour of Scots independence.
