Nicola Sturgeon will not take any 'rash decisions' on Indyref 2.published at 03:56 British Summer Time 9 June 2017
Nicola Sturgeon has said she will need time to reflect on the result of the general election and what it might mean for a second independence referendum.
Speaking at the count in Glasgow, she said: "This is our second best ever result in a Westminster election. We have won the election and I congratulate all the MPs who have been elected."
Asked what the results meant in terms of a mandate for a second independence referendum, she said: "It's almost four o'clock in the morning. Like most politicians I've had no sleep. I'm not going to take any rash decisions.
"Clearly I have to reflect on the result of the election and I will take time to do that. but I think it would be the wrong thing to do at this hour, to take decisions before having the opportunity to properly think about it."

BBC Scotland Political EditorIf Nicola Sturgeon sounds faintly disappointed, Theresa May looked crushed.
Her acceptance speech was downbeat.
