Alba leader says ‘super-majority’ of pro-independence MSPs could ‘bend’ Westminster to Scotland’s will
Alex Salmond has claimed that resistance from Westminster to a fresh independence referendum “will crumble” if Scottish voters elect a large number of pro-independence MSPs.
The former first minister said recent polls suggested a “super-majority” of up to 90 pro-independence MSPs could be elected in May, including a number from his new nationalist party, Alba, which launched at the end of last month.
