SNP To Launch Fresh Scottish Independence Bid

Nicola Sturgeon has vowed to launch a fresh bid for Scottish independence this summer, whatever the outcome of the EU referendum in June. The Scottish First Minister is also promising a rethink on some of the arguments the Yes campaign made last time, in a bid to turn the 45% who voted Yes into a majority for independence. Her pledge came as she addressed the SNP's spring conference in Glasgow with a new poll suggesting the party is on course to win an overall majority in the Scottish Parliament
