I'm a Scot with good reason to favour the union — ideologically right-wing (something long since dead in Scottish politics) with unionist tendencies whose studied in England for some time and has no intention in leaving. Though on 'Indyref 2', I find myself in something of a quandary. My personal preference is to remain with the union, though I still maintain some things are more important; not least of which democracy. Whether it's in Scotland's best interests or not, if they (or perhaps I should say 'we') want out as a majority then I must reluctantly give way. There certainly is good reason for it — Scotland and England are divided in their politics, so much so that, I think, at least a political separation is an inevitability. The question is when will this take place, not if it will. In any case, with just under half the country voting for it, it's certainly not an issue that's going to go away however much Westminster hopes it will.
