Support for Scottish independence rises to 55%

  1. Wasn’t there a poll that showed the opposite? At this point there’s just no way of knowing unless there’s another vote.

  2. I am a French person who supports Scottish independence. (And just for the record, who would also love our English friends back to the EU.)

  3. Would still love to see Scotland’s economic plans, the white paper in 2014 said they would just drill for oil, I don’t know how that ties in with the greens coalition. Also what the Scottish people think of a hard border between Scotland and England if they join the EU.

  4. 36 remain polls in a row…nobody on r/europe says a thing….one goes for indy…r/europe loses its mind

  5. So, fun fact for who aren’t aware: the reason the SNP believe there are grounds for another referendum (aside from the SNP majority in the Scottish Parliament) and the whole Brexit malarky) is that under the Good Friday Agreement a political generation is suggested as being ‘seven years’.

  6. All independence talk aside, there certainly needs to be a reform in the way the UK political process operates: if the will of one part of the UK can be blocked by another, it’s certain to cause resentment.

  7. It’s beautiful how they can ask Scottish people and measure this figure, without fear of reprisal. In more backward and barbaric places, like Iran, they execute people who harbor this kind of sentiment. The principle of self-determination is punishiable by death.

    Kudos to western Europe for being civilized on these matters.
