The SNP’s Westminster leader says it’s now "perfectly reasonable" to call for Scotland to be given a second independence referendum, following Thursday’s elections.
Speaking to Sky News, Stephen Flynn says: "We now have more pro-independence MSPs coming into Holyrood than ever before to make clear to Westminster that the people of Scotland should have the chance and the opportunity to decide their own future."
The SNP has lost its majority in the Scottish Parliament, but remains the largest party.
