A YES vote for Scottish independence would also count as a vote to rejoin the European Union, the Constitution Secretary has said.
Angus Robertson insisted a second ballot on whether or not to rejoin the bloc would not be needed post-independence, as the choice put to Scottish voters would be an independent Scotland within the EU or staying in the UK.
In an interview with Holyrood magazine, SNP MSP Robertson said that it would make the choice for voters “very clear” between Brexit Britain and rejoining the EU.
