Liberty4Eva - This might explain and make things a little clear. (But probably not
)1. Int. Country Pub: Snug - Night Nigel Farage and Nicola Sturgeon are sitting at a table sharing a bottle of wine. NIGEL (To Nicola) Nicola, why do you want to leave the UK? It's just causing trouble by holding another Scottish Independance Referendum. NICOLA (Frostily) Because you English and Welsh have forced we Scots to exit the Eu, when we want to remain. NIGEL (With bemusement) But that's Democracy Nicola...And anyway, 39% of Scots voted to leave. NICOLA (With rising annoyance) Bugger Democracy. Why should you sassenachs dictate what we do. Our future is with the EU, not the UK NIGEL So if you win a Scottish Independance Referendum, you are going to take Scotland into the EU? NICOLA Too bloody true I am NIGEL (Shakes head) But you'll hold an EU Referendum first, surely? NICOLA Aye, but I know we'll win that. NIGEL But not all Scots will vote to to enter the EU. I mean....at least 39% won't, because they voted to leave the EU in our Referendum. NICOLA What's your point? NIGEL (Nervous laugh) Well.... Then you'll be forcing 39% of Scots to be in the EU when they don't want to be. NICOLA Well that'll be their tough bloody luck. They'll have to accept the result of the Referendum. and go with the majority (Glares at him) That's bloody Democracy. Nigel shrugs.

It's too late to ruin Scotland, Scotland was decimated by Thatcher and will be unfixable for as long as there are Tory/Tory-lite-labour governments ruling the roost.

I haven't looked at the math, but I wouldn't be surprised that if the 39% that had voted out had voted in, Remain would have won. Thus, you could argue that those minority of Scots are to "blame" for Leave winning.
