UNITED KINGDOM – Scotland’s independence movement is said to now need a new leader and a new plan, with the resignation of First Minister Nicola Sturgeon.

It puts the decades-long campaign by Scottish nationalists to secede from the United Kingdom in jeopardy.

The Times of London said Thursday that Sturgeon’s departure was a “Huge boost to unionism,” and a “Generational setback” to the independence cause.

She announced her resignation on Wednesday after eight years in office, saying she knew it was time to leave.
