If she really respected the ballot result, she would not be suggesting another one.
Agreed, they would become a basket case of Europe, those are the realities if they were to gain independance.
Unfortunate, but thats how it is.Comment

Originally posted by gables View Postor maybe, those that voted no who were swung by the 'vow' promised by Cameron et al and then saw the back tracking within an hour, are now thinking that had they known that would happen would have voted yes?? and that's what Sturgeon is hearing\listening to??

Originally posted by Bluespider View PostI would think it would be more un-democratic to ignore opinion polls? no?
Surely a democratic government should be reacting to its voting population? Just because an issue is debated and answered a certain way doesn't preclude it from being debated again.
If opinion polls pointed to the No voters wanting another vote now, to completely settle the debate once and for all, the SNP would ignore it, on the basis it was a "once-in-a-generation event" - democratic will of the people would count for sweet f.a.
All "democratic" parties (not just the SNP) are very selective and embrace the elements of democracy that suit them at the time when the chips appear to be falling their way.Comment

Second vote should be only recognized on the basis that there will be future votes that can reverse the process...Comment
