Alex Salmond has said the Scottish Government was wrong to go to the Supreme Court to establish whether Holyrood can legislate for a second independence referendum.
The Alba Party leader also said that all independence-supporting parties should run on a united ticket if the Scottish Government uses a general election as a de facto independence referendum.
The former First Minister said: "The Scottish Government is asking the wrong question to the wrong court. They seem to be risking a great deal to gain comparatively little. Let's say that they win this case.
