Sturgeon: Election is chance to escape Brexitpublished at 11:43 Greenwich Mean Time 30 October 2019
SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon says the general election is a chance to escape from Brexit and let Scotland decide its own future.
Speaking on the campaign trail in Stirling, the first minister said an SNP victory would be an unequivocal and irresistible demand for another independence referendum.
She said Scotland had been treated with contempt by Westminster and the election was an opportunity to bring that to an end.
