    Spain were never going to veto Scottish membership, but were happy to give that impression to help a friend. Brexit has left UK friendless.https://twitter.com/callum_mccaig/status/848472731708469248 …

        As Prof Neil Walker explained back in 2013, no country would want to be seen as the "rogue state" that vetoed Scotland in EU.

        After Howard I expect 27 EU countries to sign a memo soon saying Scot can rejoin the EU if it wants to do so as an indy country. Veto free.
