I lived in Scotland and campaigned against leaving the UK. The major plank of my argument was that on gaining Independence, Scotland would have to re-apply for membership of the EU and would in n o way have been guaranteed anything tlike the same terms it enjoyed while a member as part of the UK. Many others thought the same.
I did not think for one moment that the UK (well, much of Englandshire outside London) would be so monumentally stuid as to vote to leave the EU. With that happening, the situation for an Independent Scotland changes vastly and yes, there should be another vote.
It is a sad but true fact that just 2 years after the 2016 vote, and simply because of demographics, enough of the older voters (who were statistically much more likely to have voted to leave) would have died, while enough of the 16 and 17 year olds (who were statistically much more likely to have voted to remain) would have reached voting age to make a remain result almost certain. Such a huge decision should never have been made on such a small margin and I agree wholeheartedly with Nigel Farage who declared (pre-result) that 52-48 would not be decisive and we would need another referendum. But hey, at least the NHS is now enjoying an extra £350m a week, and the oven ready turkeys have regained control of the sunny uplands.
