46% of Scots want to separate from the UK; 43% want to remain

With his government hanging on a single vote majority I doubt he makes it to the deadline.

The UK doesn’t have a say when it comes to Ireland. Only NI and the Republic get to vote in a border poll. The UK already agreed to that and wrote it in stone as part of the Good Friday Agreement.

Scotland’s process is less iron clad from what I understand. But they’re apparently still in the driver seat. Though they don’t get to just stay in the EU. They have to apply like any other potential member nation.

So with all that raw sovereignty hanging in the air how could they not Brexit as hard as they can.

But how beneficial does that relationship with the rest of the UK look if the UK’s ecconomy as a whole tanks?

The question is if it’ll be enough of an anchor to make going it alone and attempting build that EU end up to replace it makes sense. And that’s very dependant on Brexit format and how it all shakes out.
