Contributing sentiments towards policy:
50% : While the United Kingdom as a whole voted in favour of leaving the European Union in 2016, a clear majority in Scotland voted to stay in the bloc.49% : However, Scottish nationalists say Brexit means they should be allowed a second vote.
46% : In a referendum in 2014, Scots voted 55%-45% to remain in the United Kingdom, but the independence movement argues that the vote for the UK to leave the European Union two years later changed everything.
41% : If the SNP won more than 50% of the vote then it is still unlikely that the British government would agree to negotiate a new deal and she would have very little international support, Mitchell said.
