Scottish Election 2021: The farmers hoping independence doesn't bring a hard border


Video report by ITV News UK Editor Paul Brand
Independence is again on the agenda as voters head to the ballot in Scotland's general election, whether they want it to be or not.
For many near the border with England, it’s an issue they’d rather leave in the past.
“There’s been too much Covid and Brexit at the moment and I’d rather just leave the country alone to get back on its feet,” said one voter in Hawick, a town in the south of Scotland.
In 2014, the Scottish borders made their stance very clear in the Independence Referendum – rejecting a break-up with the UK by two to one.
