Nicola Sturgeon stands by referendum claims
Nicola Sturgeon stands by her claim the Scottish Labour leader told her she would drop her party's opposition to a second independence referendum in the wake of the vote for Brexit.
The First Minister came under fire for apparently disclosing a private conversation she had with Kezia Dugdale after the UK's Brexit vote.
But Ms Dugdale later described this as a "categoric lie".
The SNP currently hold 56 seats in the Scottish Parliament, where the constitution and the fight for independence are at the heart of the battle.
A second referendum will depend on how many of those seats the SNP hold on to this Thursday.
Theresa May: We need to review police powers

Corbyn: It's a choice of hope or fear
Jeremy Corbyn promised an NHS free at the point-of-use and an economy that works for all during a final campaign push before the election.
In his second rally of the day, the Labour leader told crowds in Runcorn that "never before has there been a clearer choice in British politics about which way we go".
He added that five more years of the Conservatives would mean "five more years of NHS cuts".
Mr Corbyn went on to promise free school meals for every child in every primary school because "hungry children don't learn".

Terrorists would 'have won' if human rights laws changed
Tim Farron has told ITV News Theresa May's pledge to change human rights legislation in the wake of recent terror attacks would be playing into the hands of terrorists.
Theresa May announced on Tuesday she would change human rights laws if they were stopping authorities tackling terrorism.
Asked about the prime ministers proposal, the Liberal Democrat leader said: "When all is said and done, changing the law is not what keeps us safe. Investing in our police and in our intelligence and security services - that Theresa May has cut - that is what would keep us safe.
"The danger is on the eve of an election, politicians will sometimes try and do something that looks good but we all know doesn't do us any good.
"And the minute we start throwing away our rights and our freedoms as a society is the moment we start to let the terrorists win."

She posed for selfies and joked with butchers but was met with boos from some of the crowd gathered at the market, who shouted "Vote Labour".
Mrs May tweeted: "Early start to the day's campaigning, talking to traders at Smithfield Market. I'll keep our economy strong to help small businesses."

Tim Farron serves up a Brexit breakfast in Solihull
Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron served up a Brexit-themed breakfast at a German cafe in Solihull on the final day of campaigning.
Mr Farron handed out the sausage and sauerkraut to supporters, but refused requests from reporters to eat it on camera as he wanted to try and avoid "the Miliband moment".
He was joined by Ade Adeyemo, the local Lib Dem candidate for Solihull.
The Lib Dems have pledged to have a second EU referendum over the final Brexit deal should they win on 8 June.
