Alba MPs plan Westminster push to get Holyrood Indyref2 powers ALEX Salmond’s Alba party has said its two MPs intend to “unleash tactics” at Westminister in a bid to give Holyrood the power to hold a second independence referendum. It said Kenny MacAskill and Neale Hanvey hope to amend the 1998 Scotland Act underpinning devolution to put Holyrood’s final say on the issue beyond doubt. The move is highly unlikely to succeed, but would pile pressure on SNP MPs to follow suit and keep independence in the spotlight. Alba said it would set out more details in the coming weeks, but it is understood its tactics would include adjournment debates and 10-minute rule bills.
