It follows protests in Glasgow over Tory rule - where Scots were filmed chanting "F**k the Tories" and "Boris Johnson is a w***er" on Buchanan Street.

Protests were also expected to hit Edinburgh yesterday as Nicola Sturgeon told Boris Johnson that Scots don't want him.

Today, the First Minister warned Boris that "Scotland cannot be imprisoned in the Union against its will".

Sturgeon argued that it would be a "perversion and subversion of democracy" for her to be denied the right to hold such a ballot after her party's election success.

In Scotland, the SNP increased its share of the vote to 45%, winning a greater proportion of the votes north of the border than the Tories did across the UK, and also increased its number of MPs at Westminster to 47.

In contrast, the Tories - whose campaign in Scotland was focused on opposition to a second independence referendum - lost more than half their Scottish MPs, with this number falling from 13 to six.
