Resurrection! Oh, YES!

On 18th September 2014, for a few hours, the people in Scotland were collectively in power. Then we decided 55% to 45% to reject independence and stay in the Union. Just how much power we would retain in the days or years following would be determined by others as they, not ourselves, shaped the future.

In the four years since then, we now have the shambles of Brexit, despite NO being sold as our way to stay in the EU. And most Scots clearly wanted to stay: 62% in favour of remain. 

And yet we are passed over. In this 'partnership of equals' we were exhorted to stick with, we are still not treated as equals.
