@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.ca There are moves to take a legal stance and say that England is denying the people of Scotland democratic choice as if we are little more than a colony. I don't know what the future holds. I hoped to see Scottish independence in my lifetime. It seems fairly obvious that the status quo is failing us.

@IndyRichard@mastodon.scot ty for the crystal ball! It does seem as though England is quickly going down a Trumpian road. Scottish independence makes a lot of sense to me. I know very little of the efforts in Wales, if there are any, and obviously Northern Ireland has a long complicated history. Whatever happens I hope the process is peaceful and democratic. Scotland-specific question: if Independence were to happen in your lifetime do you think it would be a full break from the Royal lineage as well into a Republic? Is the general feeling that their presence would just continue the colonialism?
