SNP announce date for de facto referendum emergency conference next year

THE SNP have announced the date for an emergency conference to hash out the detail of fighting the next General Election as a de facto independence referendum.

Nicola Sturgeon announced in the wake of the Scottish Government’s defeat in the Supreme Court earlier in the year that the party would hold an extraordinary meeting in 2023 to deliberate on the detail of the strategy.

The party have called it the “democracy conference” and it will be held on Sunday, March 19 next year at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre.
