EUROPEANS across the continent have delivered a message of solidarity with Scotland's independence movement in a special video posted online.
The message, delivered in four languages, backed Scotland's right to choose its future after the UK Supreme Court ruled the Scottish Government cannot hold an independence referendum without Westminster's permission.
Speaking in German, French, Italian and English the European indy supporters told Scots the EU will always leave a light on for Scotland.
A group in France said Scotland was "trapped in a Union against its will" while a group in Italy said Scots have been "collateral" damage from "England's terrible choices".

A group in Germany said: "We are here today to express our solidarity and to tell Scots: we stand with you."
The message was written by Europe for Scotland, a group that supports an independent Scotland in the European Union.
Rallies supporting indyref2 took across Europe, including in France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Ireland, Finland and Denmark.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
