I didn't say or imply that which is why Nomad King was unable to answer my question. I said "two key issues fanning independence are Boris and Brexit". Perhaps I should have typed a longer sentence like ""two key issues fanning the flames of independence are Boris and Brexit" to avoid any misunderstanding.

That doesn't mean that there wasn't an independence movement around before these two aspects came into play. There clearly was as there was a referendum in 2014.

Citing two articles which point out that Boris is unpopular in Scotland and is therefore increasing the independence vote is not nick-picking in my book but I appreciate that you may see it differently.
