Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : In the 2016 referendum on European Union membership, 62 percent of Scotland's voters opted to remain -- only to find themselves outvoted.
48% : Then there is Brexit, an even bigger symbol of Scottish impotence and disagreement with Britain at large.
42% : Still, with London refusing another independence referendum, Sturgeon could not find a way forward, conscious that any unlawful breakaway would make it impossible for an independent Scotland to rejoin the European Union, as she wishes.
