Scottish Leader Calls for ‘New Conversation’ on Independence.
Scottish National Party leader Nicola Sturgeon says support for Scottish independence is growing and that the time is right for a “new conversation” on independence because of Britain’s decision to leave the European Union.
The Scottish First Minister said Friday her party would set up a website to gather public input on a possible independence referendum. A “listening exercise” with the goal of speaking to 2 million voters was also announced.
She spoke nearly two years after Scottish voters rejected independence in a referendum.
It seems that the SNP would like to continue the EU tradition of holding as many votes as it takes to achieve the desired result.
