The First Minister wants an IndyRef2 to take place on October 19, 2023 - but only if the UK Supreme Court rules that Holyrood has the legal powers required to stage such a vote.

Judges will hear arguments from both the UK and Scottish Governments next week and are expected to take around 8-10 weeks to issue a verdict.
