    Default Scottish independence for or against?

    If you are in favor, explain your reasons and if you are against it too, in my opinion both options have their pros and cons.

    Yes, Scots deserve their own state. Also I support a united Ireland.

    It's up to the Scots. They will get to vote on it eventually and they did vote in 2014 and it was narrowly rejected. The change now is Brexit not sure whether more Scots would vote to leave the UK due to this but it seems the younger Scots are more in favour of leaving the UK. Also Northern Ireland isn't going to happen in the short term. Even if there was a vote (which isn't going to happen in the immediate future) there would need to be a lot of preparation. If there was a vote in NI it can only be called by the Secretary of State if they believed there was a majority wanting to leave the UK. This is not the case at the moment. There would also have to be a reciprocal vote in Ireland on whether they would want the North to become part of the Irish State.

    I think it will all depend on how the UK does economically in the next few years being out of the EU. I think most people vote now with their pockets. It is a completely different situation than when the 26 counties of Ireland gained independence nearly 100 years ago.

    I could not care less. None of my business and really disgusted with people putting the nose where they should not.

    I believe that the independence of Scotland is more possible than the reunification of Ireland, Northern Ireland is one of the most pro-British areas of the country.

    Now I am seeing more presence of Scottish pro-independence activists on social networks than in 2014, anyway that does not mean that it is the majority of the population, but it seems that it is frowned upon in Scotland to be Scottish and unionist, especially the Ranger club which is being highly criticized for his support of the union.
