DR>> When you think about it, if we should carry out the result of the DR>> referendum on Brexit, then the logic is that the Scottish independence DR>> referendum should also be obeyed. What's the difference?
MvdV> 1) The Brexit referendum was not the firts one,. There already was a MvdV> referendum in 1994? where it was decided to remain. If the Brexiteers MvdV> can have a second referendum, so can the Scottish Independers I say...
No, the first referendum was called by Harold Wilson in 1974, two years after we joined the then Common Market. That was forty-five years ago, much more than a generation, and so another referendum was justified. You can't have referenda every two or three years until you get the result you want.
