Is it simply because you find the notion that a large chunk of Scottish people don't want to be a part of Precious Britain offensive? Is it a "How dare you!" thing?
We're like cats, it's ours. But seriously, I've always thought of Scotland as part of our country, it seems bizarre to think otherwise. I also have Scottish rellies and they don't want to be independent. They are pretty sick and tired of the whole issue. However if the majority of Scottish people and not just the SNP want another referendum at some point they should have one. This is definitely not the time to give it due and appropriate attention.
