The First Minister said he would overcome UK Government opposition to holding a rerun of the 2014 referendum by building a "clear and demonstrable" consensus among Scots for breaking away. Pressed how this benchmark would be met, Mr Swinney cited Scottish public opinion ahead of the 1997 devolution referendum that led to the creation of the Scottish Parliament. This saw 74 per cent of Scots voting in favour of creating a Holyrood parliament and 63 per cent for it to have tax powers.

Ash Regan has been mocked over a prostitution interview blunder. The MSP claimed a question about whether prostitution would be driven underground made no sense because "if you had a lot of women in underground cellars with a locked door, how would punters get to them?"Ms Regan tabled the Prostitution (Offences and Support) Bill at Holyrood last month to try to criminalise the buying of sex in Scotland, alongside decriminalising those selling sexual services.
