The Supreme Court are to rule on whether the Scottish government has the power to hold another independence referendum.
Scotland’s FM Nicola Sturgeon wants a referendum to be held on 19 October 2022.
But the UK government won’t give formal consent for the vote to go ahead.

The court will deliver its decision at 09:45 on Wednesday – the result could have huge implications for the future of the UK.
