Scottish independence: What every indyref2 poll has said in the last year as Supreme Court hearing begins

The UK's top court is set to hear arguments on whether Scotland can call another independence referendum without the consent of the Westminster government.

Nicola Sturgeon wants to hold another vote on Scotland's future on October 19, 2023, but the UK Government has refused permission which led to the First Minister asking the Supreme Court in London to rule if she can hold one without Liz Truss's say.

Five judges - Lord Reed, Lord Lloyd-Jones, Lord Sales, Lord Stephens and Lady Rose - will hear arguments from both sides over the next two days with an outcome expected later this year.
