📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "It would be absurd and completely outrageous if an independence referendum ever ended up in court.
For this to happen, it would mean that a Conservative government had refused to respect the democratic will of the Scottish people." #Marr

📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "Michael Gove opposes independence, he's entirely entitled to that view.
I support independence, I'm entitled to that view.
But ultimately, it's not up to me or him to decide, it's up to the Scottish people to decide that question." #Marr

📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "After the crisis, the people of Scotland should have the opportunity to decide our future in an independence referendum.
The fact we're even having a debate on whether that would be respect says a lot about respect for Scotland within the UK." #Marr

📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "Can I just be clear... all of the talk about legality, and whether the UK Government would challenge the Scottish Government in court, misses the key point that the people of Scotland have voted for the SNP - offering an independence referendum." #Marr
📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "In the run up to 2014, what happened is that the UK government agreed that there was a mandate for a referendum beyond legal doubt.
That's what should happen this time - when the Scottish Parliament decides the time is right for another referendum." #Marr

📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "If the argument of the Unionist side is that Scotland is trapped, that says to me that it's one of the strongest arguments for independence." #Marr
📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "We have just won a landslide election - and while I'm not proposing a referendum in this instant right now, right now I will focus on steering Scotland out of the pandemic and into recovery, Scotland has the right to choose independence." #Marr
📣 @NicolaSturgeon: "You're sitting here and asking me - what do you do if a UK government refuses point blank to accept democracy?
That is an absurd position and the fact I can't come up with a neat soundbite answer is not a reflection on me." #Marr
