I'm not making any secret of the fact I still believe in independence. We'll continue to argue the case. Nicola Sturgeon Independence
I want there to be another independence referendum at some stage. I want Scotland to be independent, but I wouldn't choose to have it happen because England votes to come out of the E.U. Nicola Sturgeon Independence
I don't feel we need to be independent for me to feel confident in my Scottish identity. I think Scotland is pretty comfortable in its identity. We won't need independence to preserve it... if we don't become independent, it won't disappear; it isn't under existential threat. Nicola Sturgeon Independence
