Previously, we analyzed that after the death of Queen of England, can Tras keep Scottish , which has always wanted to leave the UK? As expected, with the death of the Queen of England, Scotland's last trace of longing for Britain disappeared. Scotland's chief minister said Scotland is confident of holding a second independence referendum in October next year. At the same time, Tras, who has been in power less than two months, is also facing the biggest crisis since he took office, and his position as prime minister is in jeopardy.
A few days ago, Scotland's Chief Minister Nikola Teskin revealed to foreign media that she is confident that Scotland will hold a second referendum on independence from the UK in October next year. Teskin said that in last year's Scottish parliamentary elections, the parties that supported independence won, so we have the right to propose a bill to hold a referendum independent from the UK, which will be held on October 19 next year.
Teskin said they have applied to The British Supreme Court . On the 11th of this month, the court began to hold a referendum in Scotland. If the court passed, the Scottish local government will be able to hold a referendum without passing the approval of the Trass government.
Teskin also revealed that if the court fails to pass, they still have a second way out. Tesla said that if Scotland's plan to hold an independence referendum is rejected by the Supreme Court, they will use "whether Scotland should be independent" as the campaign platform for the Scottish National Party in the 2024 British general election, and "a tyrannical overlords" to make the election a de facto referendum. However, this is the last resort.
Teskin said that this is not the way I want it, but if our legal referendum is blocked, we will never give up on Scottish democracy.
From Tesla King's statement, we can see that with the death of the Queen of England, Scotland's determination to be independent from Britain is becoming more and more determined. It is probably a foregone conclusion that Scotland will leave the UK, but it is just a matter of time.
In fact, Scotland thought of being independent from the United Kingdom a few years ago. In 2014, Scotland held its first independence referendum. The then-Hong Kong Prime Minister Cameron retained Scotland with the promise of "not leaving EU ". Coupled with the influence of Queen of England that year, Scotland's first independence referendum failed with 45% support and 55% opposition.
Later, Brexit faction still defeated the European Remaining faction, and the UK left the EU, which once again aroused dissatisfaction among the Scottish people. Since then, there have been constant calls for another referendum on independence within Scotland. Now, the Scotland's power to escape from the UK has made a comeback. However, the new British Prime Minister Tras is in a dilemma and may be unable to stop Scotland from leaving the UK.
Foreign media said that Tras, who had only been in power for more than a month, had already suffered a "forced palace" crisis, and his approval rating was even lower than that of former Prime Minister Johnson .
Foreign media pointed out that the reason why Tras was "forced to the palace" was because he had differences with the British Chancellor of the Exchequer some time ago in reviving the direction of the British economy. In addition, dozens of former government officials among the backbenchers of the British House of Parliament were extremely dissatisfied with Tras because Tras fired many of them. These British officials who were dissatisfied with Tras are preparing to attack Tras' welfare policies and plans to increase debt. In addition, these MPs are also preparing to vote against Tras in the party's top election.
In other words, Tras is not only facing many crises in the UK, but also his throne of prime minister. In this case, Tras may not have any extra energy to stop Scotland from taking the British out of England, or Tras, who was opposed by everyone, could not stop him even if he wanted to.
When the British Supreme Court passes Scotland's independence referendum, Tras' political path will definitely be greatly hit again. However, Tlas should not be too pessimistic. Maybe her step down will come faster than Scotland's independence. By then, Tras would not have to feel so embarrassed. What he should worry about may be the next British Prime Minister.
