The issue, Parm, is that "guaranteed EU membership" was used as a major selling point by the "no" campaign during the Scottish independence vote ("Stay in the UK and you'll have EU membership; leave the UK and you might not!"). That alone is a perfectly valid reason to call a second independence vote, as it seems that the exact opposite is true: Leave the UK and have a chance at continued / renewed EU membership, stay with the UK and we're out.
