SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn said that it is “clearer than ever that Scotland’s best future is in Europe, not under Westminster control”
The SNP and the Scottish Greens have branded Brexit an "unmitigated disaster" for Scotland as the country today marks the third anniversary of leaving the European Union.
Scottish Greens Europe spokesperson Ross Greer said Brexit had been an “unmitigated disaster” which was “based on snake oil promises by Tory fantasists who wanted to live out their isolationist and imperialist fantasies”. The Aberdeen South MP said that there was “no route back to Europe under Westminster control” as the Conservatives and Labour had ruled out a return to the bloc.
But in Scotland 38 per cent voted to leave while 62 percent voted to remain. No Scottish area had a majority leave vote. There was a turnout of 67 per cent.
