'Scottish leader Nicola Sturgeon to seek second independence referendum'

"LONDON — Scottish leader Nicola Sturgeon defiantly and unexpectedly announced Monday that she will seek a new independence referendum, forcing British leaders to try to prevent their country from ripping apart even as they negotiate a high-wire divorce from the European Union.

With Britain poised to trigger the start of its E.U. departure by month’s end, Sturgeon said she will push for a vote on Scottish independence in autumn 2018 or spring 2019 — likely just before the United Kingdom leaves the union.

The move, Sturgeon said, will allow pro-E.U. Scots to decide whether “to follow the U.K. to a hard Brexit or to become an independent country.”

“It will be Scotland’s choice,” she said in an announcement that caught Britain’s political world, including the government, off guard. “And I trust the people to make that choice.”

But the new plebiscite — to be held no more than 4½ years after Scots voted down an earlier referendum that was supposedly a “once-in-a-generation” decision — instantly deepens Britain’s already considerable identity crisis." WP

Allow it.

Again businessmen screw things up. Brexit was helped along by the EU's no border policy so British companies brought in cheap labour from eastern Europe. Many of these workers came over simply hoping to find work and it was bankrupting the healthcare system along with other public services. If all this causes the EU to break up they can blame themselves. Only an idiot would declare a common currency without a common financial system, it was doomed from the start.

The time span of the influx was also telling. The mass, especially Poles and Lithuanians, which came in a short space of time disoriented and destabilized the English and Welsh working class.
