During the same interview, Mr Miklinski stated Ms Sturgeon s independence dream will slip away if the Scottish public feels the SNP has been tarnished by the ongoing Alex Salmond inquiry.
He outlined that due to the current margins on Scottish independence, it will not take a huge number of voters to change their minds to end the SNP s independence dream.
Mr Miklinski added that if the SNP are sufficiently tarnished by the ongoing inquiry, voters that are on the fence regarding independence will side against Ms Sturgeon s party.
The Scottish Tory said: It s the old business, the Bravehearts, the hardcore nationalists will vote for Nicola Sturgeon if she is condemned.
