Scottish businesswoman Marie Macklin voted for independence seven years ago. Now, she does not see it as a priority.

As the Scottish National Party (SNP) pushes for a second referendum after a repeat election victory this month, Macklin believes economic recovery is the real priority, especially for the fortunes of her struggling Scottish home town of Kilmarnock.

On that score, she says, the government of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is making a difference.
