SNP launches 'Choose Scotland' campaign for second independence referendum

Scottish First Minister John Swinney announced at the SNP conference that the campaign for a second independence referendum has begun, backed by a six-figure war chest. The 'Choose Scotland' campaign aims to build support for leaving the UK, though the path to a legally binding referendum remains uncertain given UK government opposition. This marks an escalation in the SNP's push for independence, but the immediate market impact is limited.
