As another Brit, a Londoner, who didn't want Scotland to go.
1. Because I enjoy living in a country that has the Scots in it - without Scotland the country would be diminished, less interesting and more insular.
2. Generally, I think fracturing is a bad thing. I wanted to stay in the EU for similar reasons.
This isn't to say that I don't think that Scots should have self determination, just that I would be sad if they went.
I imagine some Australians would feel the sanme if - say - New South Wales decided to become an independent country

- madeofpalk 4y agoThank you! I did try googling and I thought i got it right (against my better judgement), but obviously not.
