The logical conclusion to this article seems to be that Boris needs to step down to try and help ensure Scotland does not leave the UK.

Scotland is heading towards independence from the UK thanks to Boris Johnson and Brexit
Scotland is heading towards independence from the UK. That's the inevitable conclusion to be drawn from the latest opinion polls which show a surge in support for Scottish nationalism.
The polls, which now show a consistent lead for independence, have followed a bleak year for the United Kingdom in which it has suffered one of the highest coronavirus death tolls and worst recessions of any country in the world.
It has also coincided with Britain's exit from the European Union, which a clear majority of Scots voted against.
The combination of anger at Brexit, distrust of Boris Johnson (who has a long record of offending Scots) and the UK government's shambolic handling of the coronavirus pandemic have all conspired to create the perfect environment for the independence movement.
With Scottish fisherman reporting severe problems due to Brexit and wider trade with the EU under serious strain due to new restrictions created by Brexit, the fate of the Union has never looked so poor.
