May says won't trigger EU divorce until UK-wide approach agreed


Scotland's First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon (R), greets Britain's new Prime Minister, Theresa May, as she arrives at Bute House in Edinburgh, Scotland, Britain July 15, 2016. Prime Minister Theresa May said on Friday that Britain would not trigger formal divorce talks with the European Union until a "UK approach" had been agreed, bidding to appease Scots who strongly oppose Brexit. But she said it would be inconceivable for a British prime minister to block a referendum if the Scottish parliament voted to hold one. Sturgeon said last month that Scotland's parliament would consider blocking such legislation if necessary to protect Scottish interests. It is now the official opposition to the SNP in Edinburgh, having beaten the once dominant Labour Party into third place.
