Close Call

Concluding result:
Scotland HATES you.

England is kinda the reason that barely anyone speaks Gaelic anymore

Well, Doctor Who would have a rough time without Scotland.

I hope in the end, Britain will stick together. It has a legacy greater than any other. Even though I am a Latvian, I treat the UK like it's a second home, like I would be a dual-citizen. And some people call the UK a failed state (Yes, there is some failings, like oppresive laws and such.), but in history, we held the mantle of the greatest and massive empire, to ever exist. We were like Rome! And it wasn't English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish: It was British. Let's keep flying the Union Jack, and honouring our legacy, that we had forged! Rule Brittania! Us Britons will never be slaves!

@The_Baltic_Model yike.

Well, what do ya know? This might happen again after yesterday's Brexit. History might repeat itself, and it hasn't even been 2 years yet.

@StuckovertheAtlantic well, now it have been like, four years. because it's two years since you wrote this.

@stormblade45 I was watching the whole thing unfold from here in the US, rooting for the Yes campaign because it's my belief as a history person that Scotland's been in a 300-year abusive relationship with England and now was the time to get out. I was totally confident that Yes would win, but then London made a whole bunch of promises that they haven't even lifted a finger to make good on since then. It's made me about as mad as you. Edinburgh/Glasgow deserves to be the capital of Scotland.

@LuthersMinion The second that a potential date was set for the referendum I was all for it, as was my history teacher and a few others. I was confident that we would win too but unfortunately not...but there's still hope, I guess! People are becoming more and more aware of Westminster's lies and it's well known that they haven't done anything about their promises. A little (actually, a lot) annoying for us people who voted Yes to finally have people realise this, but at least it means that we're gathering more support. I actually went to the one year on Yes rally in Glasgow last month, there were nearly ten thousand people there, it was brilliant! Despite the whole politics side to it, I think it's making people (especially younger people like me) more aware of their culture. We'll get it someday, though! I still have my Bu Chòir badge and I will wear it even after we get independence.

@stormblade45 That's the spirit! I'll be rooting for you guys from the U.S and Norway!

Scotland loves you, England.
Deep inside he does
but he has to dig deep

Can I please point out it would've been no, after close analysis. British people love playing The Petal Game.

It seems like they've already messed up, well, Westminister anyway. The support for Independence has sky rocketed since then, one can only hope we actually get it!!

that was an interesting time... and rather fascinating to hear all the opinions. our tok teacher is Scottish and would give us his view on the matter. a few hours later, we would hear a very different opinion from our English teacher from England. Unfortunately we were expected to agree with both of them.
