Mhairi Black has said her party must do more to explain why they want Scotland to be independent
A Panelbase survey for the Sunday Times, of 1004 Scots, found 52% support for independence among decided voters.
On why she decided to run for deputy, Black said: “I wasn’t ever really planning on standing for deputy, but it came about after a good few conversations. “It just sounded like something really positive and if I could play a role in it, I’d be humbled to do so. “It was more when Stephen was talking to me about his vision for how things could look, how they could be, I just thought, ‘That sounds really refreshing’.“I know that what Stephen is basically hoping for is refocusing why we’re all there, to build on the work that has been done not just by Ian Blackford, but Angus Robertson before him.”
She also praised the new leader, saying: “I am really excited. I think he’s incredibly driven, he’s energised, and really, really focused.“He’s taken account of everyone’s views, which to me is leadership material when you are able to bring people with you.”
