Rejected petition Hold a UK-Wide referendum on whether Scotland should remain part of the UK

There are calls for a Scottish Referendum on whether Scotland should remain part of the UK.

More details

There is clearly much discussion and debate around whether Scotland should remain part of the UK. There has already been one referendum on this issue - voted on by the Scots. However, the ramifications of whether Scotland leaves or remains has a profound effect on ALL those in the UK. It therefore would be fair to seek the opinion of all of the UK in a second Referendum.
