It's also with westminsters powers to just ignore SNP requests for a ref.
But at some point, if UK wants to maintain it's pretence of being a defender of sovreignty and democracy, then it will need to allow scotland to hold a second referendum on terms of it's own devising. Not westminsters.
- petesergeant 4y agoI think the UK can easily maintain this by saying "once every 25 years seems reasonable", and nobody internationally will bat an eyelid.
- dubeye 4y agoWhat is reasonable depends on context. If 80% of scottish voters argue 15 years (for eg) is reasonable, what makes Westminsters 25 number more reasonable? I would agree 10 years is pushing it .
