EU referendum: Salmond predicts Scots poll in two years if UK backs Brexit

                                   

Former SNP leader Alex Salmond has said he would expect another referendum on Scottish independence within two years of a Brexit vote, in a BBC EU debate.

He said if Scotland was "dragged out" of the EU "against our will" on 23 June he believed there would be another vote - and it would be for independence.

But Conservative Liam Fox said the EU vote should not be "stoked by fear" of a second Scottish referendum.
