Reform MSPs have walked out of the Holyrood chamber after the party failed to get a debate on Scottish independence cancelled.

With First Minister and SNP leader John Swinney having called a debate on Scotland’s right to decide, Malcolm Offord, the leader of Reform UK north of the border, insisted the issue of the constitution is a reserved matter and should not be discussed.
