Rejected petition Accept the results of indy ref and do not allow indy ref 2

In 2014, Scotland took part in what we were told was a 'once in a generation' referendum on independence. 55% of Scotland voted to remain as part of the UK.

Two years on, Nicola Sturgeon is talking about a potential second indy ref. Respect democracy and abide by the results of Indy Ref.

More details

Due to the results of the EU Referendum, Sturgeon feels that Scotland would like another referendum. In 2014, when we voted to remain in the UK, we voted to take part in national votes. The EU Referendum was a national vote not a vote for Scotland.
