Scotland Likely to Secede From the United Kingdom After Election

[letmein]

Good? Bad?

What will happen to the Union Jack?

"Potentially the most serious threat to the UK in its 310-year history moved a step closer to fruition as the Scottish National party swept to untrammelled power in the Scottish parliament, giving its leader, Alex Salmond, a mandate to hold a referendum on independence at the time of his choosing within the next five years.

The stunning result in Scotland " giving Salmond a working majority of nine at Holyrood " gave David Cameron a new constitutional headache as he saw off the introduction of the alternative vote for Westminster elections. The no campaign, of which Cameron was a vocal supporter, won the nationwide historic referendum on AV by an overwhelming margin of 68% to 32% on a 42% turnout.

In a presidential campaign Salmond turned round a Labour poll lead and swept through Scottish Labour's heartlands taking 69 seats, to Labour's 37. The SNP reached its majority by taking Kirkcaldy, the home turf of former Labour prime minister, Gordon Brown.

The stunning result in Scotland, caused by a collapse in the Liberal Democrat vote there and a rudderless Labour campaign, led Salmond to announce he would be holding conversations immediately with Cameron to "lay down markers as to what this result, what this mandate, means in terms of Scotland's relationship with the United Kingdom".

He will call for specific transfers of power to Scotland in an attempt to assemble slowly a consensus for independence, leading to a referendum at some point after 2013.

Cameron said: "If they want to hold a referendum, I will campaign to keep our United Kingdom together with every single fibre I have." Despite the SNP's big win, polls showed most voters in Scotland oppose independence.

They'll probably get the referendum but I can't see the majority wanting to split entirely.

[Zippy]

Just because Scots vote for SNP it doesnt mean they'd vote for independance. It's a different thing. And the majority of Scots don't even vote SNP so I seriously doubt a referendum would result in them seperating.

I just don't think they have the confidence or desire togo it alone. Especially now they pretty much get the best of both worlds.

[joeysteele]

Alex Salmond can of course put forward a policy for referendum on Independence, he can then hold that referendum if it gets through the Scottish parliament.

However if the result of the referendum was yes, he cannot insist that it is binding on the UK govt. The UK parliament would then independently discuss and decide whether to allow a vote in the UK parliament for Independence to be given.

With all main political parties at Westminster, it is a long shot indeed that the UK parliament would support and vote for to allow independence for Scotland.

He could of course go on and on about it, but his winning a referendum on independence would not in itself mean independence for Scotland,that would have to be decided and allowed by the whole UK parliament.

I doubt and would hope also that the Scots would not vote for full independence anyway.

I don't agree fully about Scots getting the best of both Worlds but you are totally correct in that not a majority of Scots voters vote SNP anyway.
the majority of votes in Scotland go to Unionist parties like Labour, Conservative and Lib Dems.

Even this election with the disenchanted votes of the Lib Dems being loaned to the SNP,they still only got the SNPs vote to 45%,in truth the figure comfortably strong as to SNP voting is more like 33/34%, no more.

[Zippy]

well they would'nt and thats why it ain't gonna happen. If they had a referendum(which I hope they do) I think it would settle it once and for all. Then the SNP would have nothing to bang on about.

not sure how you draw that conclusion. I think a lot of SNP votes are a nod towards independance. If they actually had it then the SNP would lose their big calling card.

but I think a lot of SNP votes are a bluff. They wouldnt get so many if it actually resulted in a split from the UK.

sorry but I dont feel any great desire from Scots to be a republic. Im sure there has been much more desire in recent decades...but it never happened.

Countries become republics via some kind of huge revolution...and I don't see many Scots revolting. It will take decades to happen I reckon. Not like theyll have referendums every year.

From what I know, most Scots like what the SNP are doing in the country but dont necessarily support independence, Salmond will have his referendum but I dont think they'll secede

its not about whether they can stand on their own feet. This isnt just about business its also about emotional attachment. I know there's a hate thing between English & Scots but really there's still deep rooted links. Giving up the union jack, the monarchy and all ties to the brand of Britain is a huge deal and I don't think Scots are anywhere near ready to take that leap. Really, they don't even need to. They still have their own identity within the union.

Really strong post Zippy,I have to agree again with you,independence would bring all sorts of costly and unnecessary trauma of re-organisation not just because of the fact Scotland is part of the EU as part of the United Kingdom but on all other industrial,business and financial matters.

As you rightly point out, they have massive affection for many British elements such as for the Monarchy.You are 100% right to point out that it's unlikely the majority of them will want to take that leap into the unknown now.

It's a thin line between love and hate, it's been on the whole a mutually good thing for Scotland to be part of the UK and good for England and the rest to have them there too.

I cannot see a majority of Scots voting for independence in the modern World as it is, it made more sense to want it many decades ago rather than now.

From todays Observer.



Utter Bliss



If Scotland becomes a Republic
it will Kill the Labour party of England.

[joeysteele]

It's never going to happen I believe.
Independence would be a disaster not only for the rest of the UK but also for Scotland, and if the unthinkable did happen as that devastation hit it would be the Govt that was in power at the time that would never recover from that break up.

However, the referendum can be held but the whole UK parliament as Sovereign parliament is the only one who can actually grant Independence and can you arista or anyone else see the Conservative,Labour and Lib Dem parties allowing independence to be granted. of course not,they are all staunch Unionsit parties and on this issue they would speak as one party. All coming together to reject the independence call.

Alex Salmond and the SNP can hold the referendum but what they cannot do is make it binding to the whole UK parliament at Westminster.
This is never going to happen I am so confident to say that never in my lifetime (I hope I have a long way to go only being 19), will the Scots ever actually vote for independence and also at the next election when it comes, I also believe the Scots will give Labour as many seats as it got in 2010 and likely more for those elections to the Westminster parliament.

The Lib Dem protest votes that gave the SNP this great succes are only loaned to them,in a Westminster general election, some will go back to the Lib Dems and others to likely Labour.The SNP, come the westmister election, will end up again behind Labour, the Lib Dems well down on past elections and the Conservatives stuck, due to the massive hatred that remains for the Conservatives overall in Scotland.

[arista]

Sure England will not want it

But in 3 years time the Scotts could back it
as the bonus behind the deal is the Key.

It was reported today David would allow
them to Vote up there.

Its for the Scottish People Alone to Pick
what they want.


And it is Bliss
that if we get the Republic Of Scotland
Labour with Die.

I feel you are missing the point I am trying to make,it is not for the Scottish people alone to decide to have independence,yes in a referendum they can vote for it as they voted for devolution in 1979 but Margaret Thatcher refused to grant it,however,that referendum vote would not in any way be binding to the govt in Westminster who have to take the whole UK picture.Only the Westminster UK parliament can grant independence to one of its Nations and there is not a single main UK party who would support that.

An Alex Salmond/SNP referendum can be taken as a barometer but it cannot be made binding to a UK Westminster govt.

Actually it's also a poor argument to say that without Scotland Labour would be finished, in both 1997 and 2001 and to a degree in 2005 even without the Scottish seats won by Labour there would have still been Labour Govts,albeit in 2005 a likely minority Labour govt.
Without the 41 seats won in Scotland by Lab 2005, they would have still had 314 seats.

[arista]

No its is the Scottish Vote Only.

Watch the News

[joeysteele]

For the referendum only.Yes.
I have watched the news, it is the 'law', the SNP cannot get a yes in a referendum and automatically get independence, it has to be granted by the UK parliament,read the law on constitutional matters, this is a constitutional matter, the Scots parliament has no power over matters of the constitution.

[joeysteele]

Either way it would not finish the Labour party as you say it will, as there are only 60 seats in Scotland, take those 60 seats away,that leaves 590 English/Welsh and Irish seats, needing 296 for an overall majority then without any Scottish seats.

Labour won 41 Scottish seats in 2005,they got 355 seats in the 2005 election, so without the Scottish seats that leaves 314, they would have still had an overall majority of 30+.

Well I would bet Alex Salmond would grin from ear to ear if they unleashed Gordon Brown on them again. That would be a very unwise decision.
Having said that most Scots would rather Brown still as PM than Cameron.

How could it finish Labour though,I have just listed clear facts of the last 3 elections won by Labour where in no way were the Scottish seats even needed to win them a comfortable overall majority.

In truth, especially with the defeat of the AV vote,with PR now off the agenda for decades at least,we are back to the 2 party system and really neither the Conservatives or Labour are anywhere near being finished,the same cannot be said for the Lib Dems though.

I don't think English people care too much either way.

and I really don't know why you think the Scots would vote to be a republic in a referendum. There's just no strong indication to back that up. In fact, all indications suggest otherwise.

The SNP have only increased their votes since they are restricted to power WITHIN THE UK fold. Votes for the SNP are not votes for independance like it used to be before Scots had their own parliament. And as Ive said, they don't even get anywhere near a majority. So in a referendum I really don't see where 50% plus of the votes would even come from.

and you can go on about feelings being different in a few years but thats just wishful thinking. It takes a damn sight longer than that for a population to suddenly switch to wanting to be a republic. It takes generations.

I totally agree,as you point out the SNP did not even get over 50% of the votes and many of the increased votes to the 45% they did get were protest votes from Lib Dems.

The last part of your post sums the realities of the situation up perfectly too.

The SNP won 69 out of 129 seats. It was a landslide victory.

[Zippy]

The SNP won 69 out of 129 seats. It was a landslide victory.

Im talking about actual percentage of the population. And those votes were not for independance but for what the SNP do within the UK. It makes sense that they would vote for the party who will fight more for the benefit of Scots within the UK system. But that doesnt mean they want to be a republic.

[joeysteele]

It's a single figure overall majority of 9. A great win, no doubt but with 45% of voters backing them which means 55% of voters voted for UK Unionist parties and part of that 45% vote the SNP got were disenchanted Lib Dems votes, this time round anyway.

Perhaps, but consider also that the only major Scottish city not secured by the SNP was the post-industrial Glasgow.

Edinburgh, Dundee, Aberdeen, Fife, you name it, all SNP territory now. Scotland is quite serious about this.

Sauce: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/scotland/scottish-politics/8495468/Scottish-Election-2011-results-map.html

[joeysteele]

Dundee,Aberdeen and Fife have always had a strong SNP contingent there, Edinburgh used to have a strong Conservative element there but that's all gone.

Glasgow and Edinburgh are the 2 largest populated Cities in Scotland and despite some successes for the SNP there this time those 2 major cities will never overall support full independence.

Alex Salmond got his success this time because he underplayed the independence issue,he is only raising it now since this overall win but the people who voted SNP do not I believe have much desire for it and even the majority of people who voted SNP especially with confused Lib Dem former voters in the ranks are not likely to vote for independence or even want a referendum on it for that matter.

[Livia]

The SNP will now be in a position to have a referendum on their withdrawal from the UK. However, such a massive question cannot be answered by the Scots alone. If a referendum is held on the future of the United Kingdom, English people must be able to vote in it.

Most English people will vote to give Scotland independence, I think. English people are tired of paying through the nose for Scots to have free prescriptions, free tuition fees, free elderly care when the English don't get the same services themselves. Why would anyone want to do that? England would be much better off financially without having to subsidise a country that contributes little and costs a lot.

I'm not so sure that Wales will vote for independence. Plaid Cymru came third in last weeks election behind Labour and the Conservatives, so although the Welsh speak of independence, they like the money.
