Whilst I admire the inventiveness of Ms Sturgeon calling for a second test of the UK's intent to leave the EU by requiring an unanimous 'out' vote from all four countries, it's a bit rich. For years, the SNP have been pleading a case for PR both inside Scotland and outside. They have now got a version of PR for the Scottish Executive but have an almost totalitarian position in the Scottish constituencies because of FPtP used nationally in the UK. The referendum will, for all the half-truths and misleading 'facts' presented, be a true PR vote rather than be held at the behest of less than 10% of the electorate.
Having said that, the slightest prospect of the current Europhobic outlook, particularly from the right wing of UK politics having to sway the population in all areas would prevent a snap exit.
