Of course I know that's not representative, its part of a faction/bubble, there are many many others with views both ways. One thing that most appear to want though, is a clear idea of the 'deal' they would be voting for, BEFORE they voted, ie what SHOULD have happened with the EU referendum.
I actually have Scottish routes and many relatives in the North, so my prism is like yours reflected in their views, I'd say it was 50-50, but overall Sturgeon has high approval ratings from the lectorate, but then when has anyone's personal experiences tallied with polls?

Approving of how she has managed the Covid situation and wanting independence are two very different things but the point I was making why would an English person give a flying **** about it? If Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland want to go their own way, thats fine by me, self determination and all that!

My objection to Brexit, was not on the principle of leaving, but more leaving the single market and customs union which was madness!
