summary
The second referendum may be done in Scotland. Nicola Sturgeon is one of the people who think Scotland has to declare independence from UK. According to her statement, independence referendum bill would be published next week. She thinks that UK is unstable now because of withdrawal from EU, so Scotland should declare independence from UK and protect its own profit. However Scottish Secretary David Mindel disagrees second referendum. He thinks second independence referendum is creating uncertainty and damaging the Scottish economy at a time when our growth is lagging behind the UK as a whole.
opinion
I think Scotland shouldn’t declare independence from UK. There are two reasons. First, Scottish oil industry relays on UK. Actually, almost all of the oil that Scotland consumes annually is supplied by UK. Therefore Scottish oil industry will decline if Scotland declare independence from UK. Second, not declaring independence from UK has been already decided once by referendum. The mind of the general public is likely to be overturned easily. If independence referendum will be done again, many people choose to be independent from UK, which spoils the meaning of the result of the first referendum. This is a serious problem. Because of these two reasons, I think Scotland shouldn’t declare independence from UK.
