A quarter of Scots would be more likely to back independence regardless of whether Rishi Sunak or Liz Truss becomes the next Prime Minister, a new poll has found.
The two Conservative leadership candidates arrive in Scotland today for a party hustings in Perth - but most Scots said whoever ultimately replaces Boris Johnson would not make a difference to their vote.
The Survation poll found 19 per cent of Scots were “much more likely to support Scottish independence” if Rishi Sunak became Prime Minister, and seven per cent “a little more likely”, to make 26 per cent in total.
