Scottish leader says new referendum on split from UK ‘very likely’
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Scottish leader Nicola Sturgeon says a new Scottish referendum on independence is "highly likely" because of Britannia’s vote to leave the European Union...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... She said Friday legislation will be prepared for a possible new vote. Independence was defeated two years ago in a Scottish referendum. Sturgeon said she would do everything possible to keep Scotland inside the EU. She said this means another referendum "has to be on the table." Britannia’s decision to leave the EU represents a substantial, material change in Scotland’s relations and could justify another independence vote, she said. The Scottish leader also praised British Prime Minister  David Cameron... has stated that he is certainly a big Thatcher fan, but I don't know whether that makes me a Thatcherite,which means he's not. Since he is not deeply ideologicalhe lacks core principles and is easily led. He has been described as certainly not a Pitt, Elder or Younger,but he does wear a nice suit so maybe he's Beau Brummel ... , who has said he will resign when a new party leader is chosen before October.
