3 isn’t feasible because of the prior legislation making it not feasible. If we, the UK and Scotland, were interested in having that kind of discussion instead of what we’ve done (some combination of railroading and pratting about at the margins) we could have passed the enabling legislation. But we didn’t, so now we’re left with a situation where the middle on third of the country are asked to choose between the lesser of two evils or more charitably between their 2nd and 3rd choices. At least on paper. In reality somewhat different I think.
I wonder if we won’t arrive at a point where the decision between independence and more autonomy has become irrelevant because of a shift in power from Westminster to the EU before we reach the point where we are ready to vote for independence.
