Here's the thing. US corporate employees like to transfer to London, take their families for a couple of years and visit Europe. It also looks good on the resume'. They tend to speak English. US companies have an expanded presence in London due to its role in the EU. I'm not saying Frankfurt and Paris aren't a possibility but I could easily see expansion in Scotland if they remained in the EU. Perhaps Scotland has figured this out already.
London is more exciting then Edinburgh. Plus the accent, I can't even understand a single word from that Nicola Sturgeon, the Scotland MP. I might as well move to China.
I guess the vote in Northern Ireland was cast along denominational lines, the Catholics favouring remaining and the Protestants leaving, and the naturalized immigrants staying too. The difference in favour of remaining is much less shocking than in Scotland , though ( a scanty 10% against a massive 24%).
If there's one thing that is disintergrating, its the Corbyn leadership. I can't believe how ineffective he has been as opposition. At a time when they have so much opportunity, he's mismanaged so badly that the party is falling apart at the seams. He's a complete liability to Labour and needs to leave immediately.
Hardly anyone in Wales wants Wales to become an independent nation. A poll was done in Wales when the Scottish Independence Referendum was going on, and guess how many people wanted Welsh Independence? A massive 3% of Welsh people!!
Being one of the poorest areas in the UK, we are effectively being propped up by England/the rest of the UK. Everyone in Wales realises this, and we know that we would never survive as a country on our own.

I love Nicola Sturgeon, she's a fireball. Her accent is charming and I understand her fine.
Looks like Scotlands assembly may have to ratify the decision with UK gov having the right to overule.
If thats the case and Scotlands 3 main parties refuse to ratify and are overuled by Westminster.... theres no point having a referendum on whether they'll want to leave.
