The Scottish National Party's leaders have delivered a defiant | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
warning to the Prime Minister, telling the party's | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
conference they will not allow her to thwart plans | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
The First Minister is also urging Theresa May to take | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
We will bring you the Prime Minister's response in a moment. | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
But first, our political editor, Brian Taylor, reports | :00:26. | :00:26. | |
A sense of history, the SNP Bosman Deborah Lee leader brandishes a | :00:27. | :00:43. | |
slogan devised by the party's Pathfinder, Winnie Ewing. They also | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
reckon historic change is under way now. It has been a pretty momentous | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
week in Scottish politics. Derek Mackay being tamed, the momentum. | :00:55. | :01:04. | |
The First Minister Scotland, Nicola. The SNP want a referendum before | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
shortly after Brexit is concluded. The Prime Minister will not | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
countenance that. Scotland will have its referendum and the people of | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
this country will have their choice. They will not be denied their say. | :01:17. | :01:26. | |
So, what to do? Who knows, another election might be around the corner. | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
A throwaway line but is it possible? In earlier Hollywood election to | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
force the Prime Minister to negotiating table? Senior SNP | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
strategists discount the idea of an early Hollywood reason -- Hollywood | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
election because unnecessary elections, it might not going to | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
live well for the SNP under a proportional voting system you can | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
never be entirely sure of and three, the most important, the SNP insist | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
they already have a mandate for a further referendum, arguably to call | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
another election would be to weaken that case. The SNP has sampled | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
opinion and focus groups and elsewhere, there is a degree of | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
resistance to an early referendum. But the party insists people are | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
open to the idea of Scotland having a choice in time to impact upon | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
Brexit. When that option is explained. So what about a | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
non-statutory advisory referendum? Nicola Sturgeon will snuffing out | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
but she is far from keen on that idea. Viewing it as a gesture | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
politics. -- will snuffing out. She wants the Prime Minister to talk now | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
about possible dates for a future referendum. -- rules nothing out. | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
Let's have a discussion, who knows, if I'd be only a matter of weeks or | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
months apart. I am up for continued discussion. Outside the hall, | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
prounion campaigners make discussion. Outside the hall, | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
point rather bluntly. But inside the conference, delegates are intent on | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
independence. And their leader appears undeterred by the obstacles | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
in her path. The Prime Minister today | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
renewed her opposition to another vote on Scotland's future | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
while the UK is in the process The Scottish Government's Brexit | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
Minister, Mike Russell, responded with a claim that this | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
course would lead to Here's our political | :03:13. | :03:14. | |
correspondent, Glenn Campbell. There is no meeting of minds between | :03:15. | :03:27. | |
these two leaders on Scotland's future. In Cardiff, the Prime | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
Minister accused the SNP of exploiting Brexit to pursue | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
independence. It is now clear that using Brexit as the pretext to | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
engineer a second independence referendum has been the SNP's sole | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
objective ever since last June. But it would be bad for Scotland, bad | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
for the United Kingdom and bad for us all. As the SNP conference, | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
Scottish ministers save their attempts to broker a Brexit | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
compromise work rebuffed and that another independence referendum must | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
be allowed when the terms of Brexit become clear. If the Scottish | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
Parliament was to have a referendum, it would be an extremely | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
undemocratic act to try and stop that. What if she still says no? The | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
reality is we are then in a constitutional crisis because the | :04:20. | :04:20. | |
Scottish Parliament has expressed constitutional crisis because the | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
its opinion, is we have the awake or sitting down and discussing it. Can | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
you have a referendum anyway? I do not think we are near that stage but | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
view is there must be a referendum at the Scottish Parliament bowsprit. | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
So what do SNP supporters think of it should do? I am sure she will | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
have her away. I have full faith in Nicola Sturgeon. If the UK | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
Government is unwilling to compromise, I think we should go for | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
it. I don't think anyone here would want it to be that, I think we would | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
want to have that agreement. This expert thinks this could be a | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
lengthy dispute. This could go on for a very long time. It could go on | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
for several years with neither side giving way and meanwhile has be | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
negotiated. There is no obvious end to this stand-off between the | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
Scottish and UK governments in sight. Unless, of course, there is a | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
big shift in public opinion, either for or against another independence | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
referendum. Glenn Campbell, Reporting Scotland, Aberdeen. | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
A conservation charity has taken North Sea and west coast haddock, | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
staple of the traditional fish supper, off its list | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
Not everyone agrees with the move, as Rebecca Curran reports. | :05:30. | :05:43. | |
Haddock was on the menu today for twins Jack and Elsa, it is their | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
favourite fish but according to the Marine conservation Society, stocks | :05:52. | :05:53. | |
are lower than they should be. They have taken it off their | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
sustainability list and suggests people try waiting or hate instead. | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
But this fish merchant disagrees. I could not believe it. -- Bagadur. | :06:02. | :06:11. | |
There was a wreck at landing. -- wrecker. I hope the consumer will | :06:12. | :06:18. | |
see it will stop I hope Google keep eating habits because they love it. | :06:19. | :06:25. | |
The Marine conservation Society its downgrading fish stocks fell last | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
year. -- it downgraded. The assessment is that the fish in | :06:32. | :06:38. | |
question at the biomass is above and below the levels recommended for | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
maintaining the sustainable fishery in the long-term. But the Fishermans | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
Federation has the mud of the society retracts the claims, which | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
they say are false. They are not fishermen or scientists, they have | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
scientists among them but they are not embedded as we are in the | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
day-to-day stewardship of these stocks. We know when the sustainable | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
or not and we get proper accreditation. And they come out | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
with this lightweight stuff about potentially damaging busters were | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
not happy as you may have gathered. Several hundred boxes of haddock | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
have been landed here in Peterhead last week alone. Much of it headed | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
for for fish and chip shops. But mixed messages over sustainability | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
will undoubtedly confuse consumers who will be left wondering whether | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
or not they can order their Friday fish supper with a clear conscience. | :07:27. | :07:31. | |

Police searching for Moira Anderson, the schoolgirl who disappeared | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
60 years ago, say they've identified five areas of interest on | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
Radar and sonar equipment has been used to pinpoint the areas | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
The 11-year-old left her grandmother's house in Coatbridge | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
Police believe that the bus's driver, Alexander Gartshore, | :07:49. | :07:55. | |
murdered her, before disposing of her body. | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
Let's get the weekend weather outlook now, from Kawser. | :08:00. | :08:09. | |
Good evening. So far this evening it has been quite cloudy and wet with | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
her bridge of rain falling as snow over the highest road routes in the | :08:17. | :08:23. | |
North. Some snow on the ground here, and while it will be cloudy and wet | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
for a while, it will become drier as we head through the night. The rain | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
clearing away as we head through the night. Mainly cloudy skies across | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
the central belt and the South, but the poor North and North East, the | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
risk of icy stretches under clear skies, temperatures dipping close to | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
freezing in places and the Met Office had issued a yellow warning | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
for part of a Highland, Moray and Aberdeenshire. For towns and cities, | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
temperatures in the South, seven or eight Celsius, close to freezing in | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
the North. Tomorrow, here is the wider picture for the UK. The | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
largest and driest conditions will be further towards the South East | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
and across parts of Scotland. Across the West, outbreaks of rain pushing | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
into Northern Ireland and parts of Wales and north-western Scotland. | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
Coverage is here mild, 12 to 15. If you're heading to Edinburgh for the | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
rugby, it will be dry and where to start with bar code will increase | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
during the match, but staying largely dry. The afternoon, starting | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
to see cloud and rain thickening across South West. There may be some | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
damp weather Ford Humphreys and Galloway, and western parts of the | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
border. The East Coast dry with sunshine. -- would present Galloway. | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
Across Orkney some persistent showers throughout the course of the | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
day. For the evening, the rain are piling in across the West, some of | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
it heavy at times. That will last until Sunday morning. Sunday, some | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
onto -- uncertainty, but it looks as though Bill approved by the | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
afternoon with more on the way of sunnier spells. | :09:55. | :09:56. | |
From everyone on the late team here in Glasgow and around | :09:57. | :09:59. |
