If there's a case for re-running the EU referendum then there's a case for another Independence referendum.

Scotland isn't in a Union of equals but is being absorbed by the larger country England who regards Britain and England as the same thing. Scots deserve better than the shambles that is Westminster!

Independence is the norm, Scotland has more than enough resources which is why it is always in surplus and that is not including the oil.

I believe the people of Scotland have to recognise their own worth and the worth of their fellow country folk and realise that they have the power and the ability to make their lives better in every aspect. Stand strong and make the decisions that will ensure your grandchildren on-wards live in a fair, just and vibrant nation that looks after all its people.

The timing needs to be right! I'm happy to leave it to Nicola to choose the right time (she's a smart cookie). Choosing the wrong time & losing a second time will be the finish of our independence vision.

We need our independence as soon as possible. The UK will do everything in its power to stop it! But with Brexit about to happen on 29/3/2019, the UK will be distracted in its own self-inflicted turmoil. Ideally, NS needs to declare Independence referendum sometime in March 2019, with the vote some time in May 2019. This should avoid all the UK pundits, BBC, politicians and Newspapers arriving in Scotland in their droves for months on end telling us how much they adore the Scots. The lead time to the vote needs to be short and quick. If some Scots are insure of how they should vote there is something wrong with them. Especially after the carry on with Brexit (equates to English independence). A longer lead time to the vote will not change things. Also we need to ask the EU nations to support us (loudly) in this cause. The vote should avoid Postal votes, except in special circumstances, where perhaps some proxy mechanism may be possible for incapacity, etc.

Since 1975 Westminster has been taking 92% of Scotlands oil. Only leaving 8% for the Scottish people. Theft on a grand scale. Last year the EU identified that Scottish farmers needed funding support to bring them in line with EU. The EU handed over millions£ to Westminster who then gave it to Welsh & English farmers instead. Thats Theft. Its ime for Scotland to be independent..

It's not just Brexit it's that the UK government have the power to put Scotland in any situation like Brexit against Scotland's will, Brexit has shown us, the way this Brexit process has been handled has shown us that Scotland isn't and will never be an equal partner in union. It's time for a referendum on independence for Scotland, Brexit or no Brexit because Scotland has to make sure no matter what that there never again is a risk that something like this can happen again. Scotland trusted the union time and again and this is what she receive for her efforts, the people of Scotland deserve a chance to decide if the union is still worth the costs because it's becoming clear that Scotland can't afford to stay in this union.

Independence from the Union is completely different from independence from a trading arrangement (EU). I did not get the result which I wanted from either referendum but there has to be an acceptance of the vote. It is morally wrong to keep holding referendums until you get the result you want. I would much prefer that the Scottish Government focuses on staffing our schools with motivated teachers, improving infrastructure and pushing the Digital Scotland agenda to improve productivity.

watching how Westminster Tory's handling of Brexit casts doubts on the veracity of any recent referendum and certainly leads to the conclusion that any referendum should be run twice to confirm the legitimacy of any result
