Scotland Rejects Independence in Record-Breaking Referendum

[Phossix]

so, is it really a country then?

It is a country. But it's still the part of the United Kingdom.

Scotland is now the only country to refuse its independence, apparently.
Far from proud of that.

Can you try again later?

I doubt Westminster would let us even try.

So... one shot a independence, and that's it forever until the end of time?

Probably not for many years. It was noticed that it was the younger voters who wanted the independence most. Older folk didn't seem to. I suppose it just means that Independence will come in the future.

The interesting thing in this vote (which I liked) it that first of all they opened voting to 16 years of age, which is excellent is it totally engaged the youth in the debate, and also that it was not enough to be a Scottish citizen, you had to be a resident in Scotland as well. Which meant that Scottish people living outside Scotland had no say in the vote, which was also a smart move as it was only voted on by the people who would be directly impacted by the outcome.

A most impressive turnout. People actually cared for a change.
