While you can’t tell from watching the streets of London, there was a lot of commotion in the UK over the past couple of months. Yesterday (Thursday Sept 18 2014), there was a referendum for Scotland’s independence. After talking to some British citizens, I found people had very strong reactions towards the situation. Most were vehemently opposed to the idea of Scotland’s independence. Luckily for them, the vote came out this morning and Scotland decided that they were #bettertogether, with a 55% ‘Yes’ vote. Considering the small lead, it will be interesting to see how this plays out in the future, now that the UK has ignited the hopes of thousands for independence. Anyways, it was really fascinating to be in the UK during this historic moment, even though I don’t know nearly enough to have an educated opinion about it.
Cheers!
