Scotland's First Minister and leader of the Scottish National Party Nicola Sturgeon waves on the steps of her official residence, Bute House, in Edinburgh on May 9, 2021, following the party's victory in the Scottish parliament elections.British and Scottish politicians on Sunday played down the risk of a legal battle over whether Scotland can hold an independence referendum, but provided little clarity as to how London and Edinburgh would resolve their differences on the issue.
With speculation mounting that the British government would go to court to stop a referendum, senior minister Michael Gove was repeatedly asked during TV interviews on Sunday how London would handle the Scottish issue. Asked to confirm whether he was definitely saying “no” to legal action, Gove said: “We’re not going near there.”
