Rejected petition Call second EU referendum prior to a Scottish independence vote to preserve UK

People voted to leave or remain based on the position of the UK. If Scotland were to leave, then the UK ceases to exist and the premise of the vote is lost, questioning its validity. The question should be; Remain in EU and keep Union or leave EU without Scotland. Voting age should be reduced to 16.
