The Glasgow Conservatives are urging Scots to respond to the SNP’s fresh independence drive by backing a petition opposing a second independence referendum.

Scottish Conservative & Unionist Party leader Ruth Davidson urges people to “join me in making sure the SNP listens for once” – following polls showing a clear majority opposed to a second vote on independence.

The petition – which can be found at www.scottishconservatives.com/no2indyref ​– comes after Nicola Sturgeon promised only this April that she would not revisit the referendum question unless opinion changed.

A new poll today reveals that there is no increase in support for independence, and even less backing for a referendum.
