Good God.

I mean, am I a political genius? Is that it? Because I swear to God, I must be, if a vote that swipes away rights from entire nations and ushers in a new government with added fascist leanings is not an automatic mandate for an independence referendum, How can anyone be surprised?

The surprise is that it isn't a trigger for a General Election.

Nothing is a political trigger for anything in a state without a written constitution.

I thought our constitution was written, just basically in no one place, but splattered across various acts, rulings, treaties and whatever. But to be honest, I was talking less about a constitutional trigger and more the inevitable kneejerk of the vox populi. The potential breakup of the Union was one of the problems he mentioned in the recently discovered 'secret article.'
