    You all seem to have forgotten that everybody who voted for independence in 2014 effectively voted to leave the EU at the same time.

    Not sure I understand what you're saying here Jupiter ? Technically your right the UK being the member nation in 2014, But what was never really established was would Scotland being a sovereign Nation in its own right would still be a member, But what was established was an Independent Scotland would be free to join EFTA immediately thus gaining entry to the single market, Anyway we were all conned you included ! if you care to look at most of the stuff the "warned " us about turned out to be bollox

    In 2014 nearly everyone and their dog was against us voting yes, the EU too. Yes they said they would look favourably on our bid for membership, but the best thing was to stay in the union. The no campaign even said the only way to stay part of the EU was to vote no and look how that turned out.

    We were screwed twice over voting no, hence why a vote now would be a different outcome in my opinion. Much better to be part of a strong, european union than keeping the pretence up of the UK.
