The First Minister of Scotland Nicola Sturgeon delivered a speech on Scotland’s future in Stirling on the 2 September 2016, and launched the first phase of the SNP’s new independence initiative. She made clear the Scottish Government would do all it could to protect Scotland’s relationship with the EU. Nicola Sturgeon launched the first phase in a new independence initiative – the biggest listening exercise in the SNP's history, which would hopefully reach out to 2 million people in Scotland before St Andrew’s Day. Members of the public could take part in The National Survey to give their views on Europe, Brexit, and independence, and set out concerns and questions they have. The SNP’s 120,000 members were challenged to engage with five people each month for the next three months. This would take place alongside doorstep activism, and town-hall events throughout the country hosted by SNP parliamentarians. |
