The region’s politicians have been reacting to Wednesday’s Supreme Court decision which has placed a block on plans for a second independence referendum next year.
The decision from the court ruled that the Scottish Government did not have the legal right to have a second poll without the consent of the UK Government.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon had hoped to hold a vote on 19 October next year, but said following the decision that she was disappointed, though respected the decision of the court.
