> The Scots aren't happy with the rest of Britain. They aren't happy politically with Westminster's shift to the right. There is this general perception that "the Scottish people" want to leave the UK and that "the Scottish people" didn't want Brexit. This is simply not true. If we look at the Brexit results [1] we can see that Scotland voted 38% in favour of leaving the EU - yes a majority voted to stay however 3/5 is nowhere near enough to claim the dissenters are irrelevant. Similarly the referendum on Scottish Independence was a vote with two clear and highly relevant sides [2].
