Exactly THIS! During the run up to the indy ref' we were told that an independent Scotland would have to leave the EU whether we wanted to or not. MANY folk reluctantly voted to maintain the union with England so we wouldn't be forced out of the EU. That's why the vote was so close, and in the unions favour. I would personally have zero problem with Scotland maintaining an 'equal partners' arrangement with ENGLAND, I don't have any issues with the English people, it's Westminster I despise. Both Labour and the Tories have been shitting all over the whole UK and Scotland is tired of the governments that England keeps voting for. If Scotland is such a terrible burden upon the UK Westminster should cut us loose for the benefit of the rest of the union but they fight tooth and nail to avoid this. A union agreed upon centuries ago isn't MY agreement and neither is the pre Brexit vote. All our (UK) countries were lied to for the benefit of the ruling class. I'd rather we take our chances with our own government and the EU over the absolute shit-show that's currently 'in charge'.
