'Absurd and outrageous' for government to challenge Scottish independence referendum in court, says Sturgeon
Nicola Sturgeon has said it would be "absurd and completely outrageous" if the UK government went to court to block a second independence referendum.
The first minister told the BBC's Andrew Marr Show: "For this to end up in court, which is not something I ever want to see, it would mean a Conservative government had refused to respect the democratic wishes of the Scottish people and the outcome of a democratic election and tried to go to the Supreme Court to overturn Scottish democracy."
