UK PM Johnson must accept another Scottish independence vote: Nicola Sturgeon December 14, 2019 at 04:58AM

The SNP won 48 of Scotland's 59 seats in the UK parliament in Thursday's national election, prompting Sturgeon to step up her demands for another independence referendum. However, Johnson, boosted by his own Conservative Party winning an 80 seat parliamentary majority in the election, told Sturgeon by phone on Friday that he opposed another independence vote.
