THE UK Government is being urged to “respect” Scotland’s devolution settlement by politicians in Europe.
The European Free Alliance (EFA) – a political organisation constituted of various nationalist and regionalist and autonomist parties across Europe – said that the UK Government’s move to block gender reform legislation, which was overwhelmingly passed in the Scottish Parliament before Christmas, was a “direct attack” on devolution.
The EFA represents 43 parties across the EU, and features 10 MEPs within its ranks.
