We are back with the late news at 10.

:00:00.:00:00.

Now on BBC1, it's time for the news where you are.

:00:00.:00:00.

The SNP leader has dismissed suggestions that the idea

:00:07.:00:10.

of a second referendum on independence has

:00:11.:00:12.

Nicola Sturgeon instead re-affirmed her commitment

:00:13.:00:16.

for a campaign to be launched in the summer to change people's

:00:17.:00:19.

However, the Conservative leader said the idea was now firmly

:00:20.:00:24.

Here's our political correspondent Andrew Kerr.

:00:25.:00:34.

The round of Sunday TV interviews draws the election period to a

:00:35.:00:41.

close. Nicola Sturgeon leads a minority-owned meant but says she

:00:42.:00:46.

won't allow the opposition to block her manifesto promises. Nor has the

:00:47.:00:50.

idea of a second referendum being put to bed. There is a majority who

:00:51.:00:56.

support Scotland becoming an independent country so it's a

:00:57.:01:01.

ridiculous notion to say because the Conservatives got 20% of the vote,

:01:02.:01:05.

the case for independence has taken a step back. Those of us who support

:01:06.:01:11.

independence have a job to do to boot the majority support not in

:01:12.:01:15.

parliament but in the country. Her main opponent was also being

:01:16.:01:20.

interviewed. As the SNP prepare for a summer campaign to persuade people

:01:21.:01:25.

of independence, Ruth Davidson said the idea was off the table. What was

:01:26.:01:30.

significant about the result was we managed to stop them having a

:01:31.:01:36.

majority. This idea they did not put a clear mandate for a referendum in

:01:37.:01:42.

their manifesto and now they don't have a majority, that takes that

:01:43.:01:47.

second referendum of the table. As the two biggest parties face up to

:01:48.:01:53.

each other, Labour is left trying to refocus on the new look Scottish

:01:54.:01:56.

politics. It sounds like they are struggling. Up against in a binary

:01:57.:02:03.

situation where we have unionism versus nationalism, that is a

:02:04.:02:06.

difficult situation for the Labour Party. We are not comfortable

:02:07.:02:12.

nationalists or Unionists. The Labour Party has a problem. The tour

:02:13.:02:22.

of the TV studios is over. Tomorrow, new and returning S MPs go to

:02:23.:02:26.

Hollywood as they try to work out strategy on policy, the institution,

:02:27.:02:29.

trying to outplay each other. Family and friends of a man who died

:02:30.:02:31.

in police custody in Fife say race Police Scotland haven't

made a comment. Relatives of Sheku Bayoh held

:02:35.:02:39.

a memorial service in Kirkcaldy earlier this afternoon,

:02:40.:02:43.

a year after his death. In their thoughts and in their

:02:44.:02:58.

hearts, Sheku Bayoh's family gathered to remember him. It was

:02:59.:03:03.

here he was detained and restrained by officers called to an incident.

:03:04.:03:07.

He died shortly after. His family have campaigned for the truth of his

:03:08.:03:13.

death and fear for a cover-up. We are worried about the race is part

:03:14.:03:17.

played in this case because the way he was injured is just I think

:03:18.:03:27.

racism had to play a big part in it. The 31-year-old had made Scotland

:03:28.:03:32.

his home. His family have been given five different versions of what

:03:33.:03:37.

happened. A memorial is being held to celebrate the part Sheku Bayoh

:03:38.:03:42.

played in so many lives, but there is still deep frustration and anger

:03:43.:03:46.

at so many questions unanswered. It is a sad situation for the family

:03:47.:03:51.

but they are increasingly tired of the repeated attempts to bully them,

:03:52.:03:57.

silence them and wait for a fatal accident enquiry. His death has been

:03:58.:04:02.

investigated by the IPC C. The family still searching for truth and

:04:03.:04:06.

Football, and Celtic confirmed their fifth

:04:07.:04:08.

successive Premiership title by beating their nearest

:04:09.:04:09.

Patrick Roberts scored twice and Celtic went three up

:04:10.:04:15.

While Celtic celebrated, the Dons are Premiership runners-up

:04:16.:04:19.

Andy Murray is playing Novak Djokovic in the final

:04:20.:04:25.

Murray is looking to hold onto his world number two ranking,

:04:26.:04:32.

Djokovic has won the first game of the first set.

:04:33.:04:47.

Stubborn cloud around producing some showers but dry overnight. A dry

start tomorrow. Some mist and low cloud initially. Dry, fine, bright

:05:10.:05:15.

and warm by mid afternoon. Temperatures in the west around

:05:16.:05:23.

22-23dC. Further east, cooler but still mid to high teens. Right on

:05:24.:05:30.

the east coast it will because. If you had any stubborn cloud around

:05:31.:05:35.

today, tomorrow is far better. Clear skies across the board. Lovely

sunshine to end the day and as we had to Tuesday, more of the same.

West, temperatures in the 20s. Our next update is just
