Should Scotland be an independent country?

13 March 2017

Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has demanded a second referendum on Scottish independence. Last time, the question was: "Should Scotland be an independent country?" If the same question is asked, while only people in Scotland would vote, we wanted to see answers from across the UK. Please select your country and vote below (we're aware some campaigning may take place on this poll so treat it as a bit of fun rather than an authoritative representation.)

We try to use technology to limit voting to one per person. Occasionally, this may erroneously block a few people's votes (eg, from shared offices). Apologies for that.
