Beelzebufo posted:As an outside observer () to this, am I wrong to hope the Scotland does vote for independence? I only know what I read from international news sources, so I don't know the realities on the ground, but it does seem with Brexit that Scotland couldn't possibly be that much worse off without the rest of the UK. I'm curious what people who are actually directly implicated in this feel. I voted No in the last Indyref in 2014, because I thought there were too many holes in the arguments for independence, and Ed Milliband was up in the polls and I was hopeful that Labour were going to win in the UK-wide elections in 2015 , and also that a left-leaning UK would have been better than a possibly-centrist independent Scotland. I thought there was no way England would vote for conservatives two elections in a row . Seven years later, and after Brexit, no one would make the same argument. The sooner we don't have to deal with Westminster's nonsense the better. The majority of people who are unionists are older now, and most of those under 45 support independence.
