Sturgeon: with a win, SNP new referendum

GLASGOW –

The Schotser prime minister Nicola Sturgeon has Sunday said that if the Scottish National Party (SNP) wins the elections on 8 June, her British colleague Theresa May to hold a referendum on the independence of Scotland can no longer deny. This stance is no longer tenable, said Sturgeon, in an interview with the BBC.

The SNP won last year, 56 of the 59 Scottish seats in parliament. Also this time point, the readings on an easy victory of the nationalists. That should be according to Sturgeon lead to a new referendum on separation as soon as the conditions for the brexit clear. The Scots voted in majority against the withdrawal from the European Union.

In 2014 they pointed out independence from Britain. May is not the time now to talk about a Scottish referendum. Sturgeon noted subtly that the British prime minister often changes his mind.
