Now that you have agreed the principle that Scotland should have a referendum when it is likely that people would vote for independence, it is important for us to meet to discuss how we turn that principle into an agreed legal mechanism…

Anyone who is involved in the inciting of racial tension or stirring up behaviour that leads to the destruction of good accommodation is a disgrace and will be pursued by Police Scotland.

Your acceptance of the fact that majority support for independence in Scotland also means that a referendum should take place is welcome.

You have rightly identified that there must be a discussion about where power lies across these islands.
