3) Does Nicola Sturgeon really say no to a second referendum?

In her opening speech at the SNP conference in Aberdeen, Nicola Sturgeon announced that holding another independence referendum before 2021 “would be wrong” and that there wouldn’t be one unless there was “strong evidence” that the Scottish people had changed their minds. However, she did say that if the UK leaves the EU it may justify a second referendum much sooner.

4) Is she an elected MP?
