Britain: After Boris Johnson Comservative win, Scotland wants to remain in EU and demands fresh independence vote

Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said Prime Minister Boris Johnson has no mandate to take Scotland out of the European Union and demanded a fresh independence vote on its place in the United Kingdom.

With all of the Scottish results now counted, the Scottish National Party (SNP) won 48 of the country’s 59 available seats — 13 more than the pro-independence party won in 2017.

The Conservative Party while winning a majority across the whole of the United Kingdom, actually lost seven seats in Scotland and now only has six MPs (Member of Parliament) in the country.
