Guardian News published this video item, entitled “Boris Johnson ‘frightened of democracy’ SNP to hold Scottish independence vote says Sturgeon” – below is their description.
Nicola Sturgeon has revealed she will hold an advisory referendum on independence if the Scottish National party wins a majority in May’s Holyrood elections, regardless of whether Westminster consents to the move.
If the SNP takes office after May, it will request from the UK government a section 30 order, which is part of the Scotland Act 1998 which allows Holyrood to pass laws normally reserved to Westminster
