She’s marmite, that’s for sure. The polls may have swung slightly the other side of the separatist divide in recent weeks - doubtless entirely because of Covid - but Scotland is still, essentially, split right down the middle thanks to 6 years of her agitating and fostering division rather than healing. She has caused a mess that will take a generation to fix and if (a mighty big if) there was another referendum, delivering a Yes vote, then Scotland would become a very unpleasant place to live for years into the future. For all the Nats’ banging on about separatist movements in places like Norway, successful votes to hive off part of a nation state are invariably carried by comfortable, sometimes overwhelming, majorities. A Yes by a whisker is the worst possible outcome, for all involved.
