THE Scottish Greens have pledged to resist both a re-established "Union Unit" and any attempt by Westminster to interfere with the work of the Scottish Parliament, regardless of which Tory leadership contender becomes the next prime minister.
The so-called Union Unit was originally established under Boris Johnson as a cell of UK Government aides tasked with fending off Scottish independence. However, the team was plagued by internal turmoil and resignations before being disbanded in 2021 in favour of two Cabinet committees.
