I don't see it happening, we've been through far too much in the last 10 years to inflict even more damage.
I've asked this question many times but how is it feasible for Scotland to become Independent:
1. They currently don't meet the requirements to join the EU. Are they going to skip the current waiting list?
2. How will they create a military?
3. Still a big question mark over currency and Scotland's debt.
4. Ownership of Natural Resources?
- smcl 4y agoIf there was a waiting list then there would have been no expansion since 1987 at least, when Turkey began negotiation.
- Etheryte 4y agoPerhaps I simply don't understand what you mean, but none of those questions seem very complex? For 1-3, see any Baltic states in the early 90s who are now a part of the EU. Just because you don't meet the requirements to join right away doesn't mean you can't do it over time. As for 4, naturally Scotland would own its own natural resources, what's ambiguous about that?

- 4dregress 4y agoUnfortunately it's not the 90's and a lot of things have changed in geopolitics. France is quite against expansion and there are a lot of questions around what to do with Ukraine. Scotland wanting to join as an unproven independent is really unlikely. https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2020/02/05/what-would-it-take-for-scotland-to-rejoin-the-eu-as-an-independent-state/ https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2020/02/05/what-would-it-...
- Erikun 4y agoThe biggest hurdle for Scotland joining the EU arent the requirements, they'd likely pass those without too much issues. The biggest hurdle is probably Spain who wouldn't want to give the Catalan independence movement a good example.
