First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has signalled an intention to rejoin the European Union as a member should Scotland leave the UK. The comments from Mr Tusk come after a YouGov poll which showed 51% support for independence - a majority for the first time in five years. "But sometimes I feel like I'm a Scot - I feel like I'm Scottish, especially after Brexit. Despite his claims of countries welcoming Scotland in, Mr Tusk said there would still be a process of application for any country to re-enter the EU. Speaking on the same show, Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab suggested other EU countries dealing with independence movements could be against the inclusion of Scotland in the EU.
