The turmoil engulfing the SNP won’t derail the push for Scottish independence, according to key voices from the wider Yes movement, but they warn the party leadership it cannot take a “business as usual” approach.
The warning comes before the party’s long-awaited convention on Saturday where SNP members will come together in Dundee to debate independence strategy, including the option of treating the next general election as a de facto referendum, a plan favoured by a majority of Yes group organisers and now being reconsidered by the party leadership.
