TWO of Scotland’s “major pro-European campaigns” are merging into one – and they’ve appointed some former top SNP figures to take on key roles.
The European Movement in Scotland (EMiS) is to merge with EU+me, which is currently chaired by former SNP MP Professor Stephen Gethins, in an effort to “step up” campaigning to rejoin the EU “on the 50th anniversary of the UK joining the then European Economic Community in 1973”.
Gethins will join the EMiS executive as a co-opted member in the wake of the merger, the group said in a press release.
