One that they were happily part of for several hundred years don’t forgot. They had a referendum and decided to stay, you can’t keep running them every few years until you get the result you like. Besides Scotland leaving the UK and the resulting chaos of negotiations will make Brexit look like a walk in the park, the SNP aren’t honest with their voters about that.

It’s a form of democracy, but how many systems practice full direct democracy on every issue all the time?

National self-determination is an important issue, so if many people support secession, you should hold frequent votes on it
