What the petition asks
We were told in 2014 that Scotland leaving the UK would mean leaving the EU. This may have influenced some voters to remain. In 2016 Scotland voted to remain in the EU. Now that the UK are leaving the EU and this goes against the wishes of the Scottish electorate then the Govt must allow Indy ref2
The Conservative government stated in 2014 that an Independent Scotland would have to reapply for EU membership. Now in 2019 with the UK leaving the EU against the democratic voting wishes of the Scottish people (2016) the time has come for our right to a second referendum on our Independence. This will allow Scotlands electorate the opportunity to determine it's own future as it is clear that the UK no longer functions as a democracy under the current form of Central Government.
