By A Correspondent| The Scottish National Party (SNP) leader, leader Nicola Sturgeon has announced strong intention to pull Scotland out of the United Kingdom.

She said this while somewhat celebrating her party’s gains in the just ended polls.

While the Conservative appeared winning the election, her own party was edging behind victoriously.

“I was expecting a good performance,” said Sturgeon.

She added saying “I think the results we are seeing somewhat exceed the expectations I had.

“Scotland has sent a very clear message – we don’t want a Boris Johnson government, we don’t want to leave the EU.

“The results across the rest of the UK are grim but underlines the importance of Scotland having a choice.

“Boris Johnson has a mandate to take England out of the EU but he must accept that I have a mandate to give Scotland a choice for an alternative future.”
