People in Scotland want to have their say on whether the UK should be part of the European Union, Tory leader Ruth Davidson insisted as she launched the Conservative campaign for this month's Euro elections.
While SNP politicians claim the Tory pledge to hold an in/out referendum on EU membership is the "real threat" to Scotland's place in Europe, Ms Davidson said the majority of SNP voters want the issue to be put to the test in a ballot.
She also likened Nigel Farage's Ukip to the SNP, claiming both parties use "anti-Westminster rhetoric" for political ends.
