Scotland is preparing for a new referendum on independence

Шотландия готовится к новому референдуму о независимостиIn September 2014 Scotland has a referendum on independence.

Scotland’s first Minister Nicola Sturgeon announced that the Scottish government will start the preparation of the legislative framework for a new referendum on independence from the UK.

Last week, she also said that the country will study public opinion on this issue.

Previously, Sturgeon said that a British exit from the European Union in a referendum held in June, is automatic output and Scotland from the EU – but this may not coincide with the opinion of the majority of the population.

In September 2014 Scotland has a referendum on independence.

Then 55% of the population voted against secession from the UK, for independence voted 45% of voters.

We will remind, Scotland in the referendum on June 23 voted to remain part of the EU. If in England Brakcet” was supported by more than 53% of voters, that in Scotland there has been only 38%.
