Scotland will once again have the opportunity to vote for independence from the United Kingdom in a referendum, announced the Prime Minister of that country, Nicole Sturgeon, reports the Independent.

Sturgeon made the announcement as the UK Parliament prepared to allow Theresa May to trigger Amendment 50 and start Brexit.

May previously stated that there was no stalemate regarding the UK-Scotland deal, as Scots voted overwhelmingly to remain in the EU.

"If we ignore Scotland's demands regarding the European Union and the single market, we will not be allowed to complain if the other side does the same to us in a future discussion."

May also stressed that the referendum must be held in autumn 2018 or spring 2019.

The first referendum in Scotland was held in September 2014, when the unionists still voted to leave the united Great Britain with 55 percent in favor of remaining.

The latest research indicates that the next referendum will be much more interesting, and that it is now clear that an increasing number of Scottish citizens are determined to be among those who want independence.
