Part 6/12:
One of the most pertinent discussions revolved around the idea that if the UK remains a voluntary union, a path for departure must logically exist. Gethin emphasized that the lack of a clearly defined exit strategy from the UK complicates the independence conversation. He drew attention to successful mechanisms in other regions, such as Northern Ireland, suggesting the need for legislative clarity outlining the 'rules of the game' for Scottish independence.
This ambiguity has led to confusion, with parties interpreting their representation in Parliament in varied ways. Consequently, a definitive process for gauging support for independence is missing, contributing to ongoing debates about a potential second referendum.
