据《基督教科学箴言报》通讯记者皮特•盖根今年早些时候报道,这一问题加剧了伦敦与苏格兰首府爱丁堡领导人之间的政治分歧,并将有可能从本质上改变苏格兰文化身份。
Just as political events out of London in the 1980s and '90s – including the policies of Margaret Thatcher and the creation of a Scottish parliament – spurred Scots to increasingly identify themselves as Scottish rather than British, so, too, could Brexit strengthen Scotland's relationship with Europe. As the English and other pro-Brexit groups in Britain push away from the European Union, Scots may increasingly embrace Europeanness as a way of distinguishing themselves from their neighbors to the south.
20世纪80年代和90年代,玛格丽特•撒切尔夫人政策的出台和苏格兰议会的建立这些伦敦以外的政治事件使苏格兰人更愿意将自己视为苏格兰而非英国子民,因此脱欧将加强苏格兰与欧洲的联系。随着英格兰以及英国其它支持脱欧地区对欧盟的推开,苏格兰人民将更愿意成为欧盟成员,将自己与英国南方的“邻居们”区别开来。
Laura Cram, a professor of politics at Edinburgh University, told the Monitor that this rise in pro-Europe sentiment could be more about Scots themselves than the benefits they see in maintaining close ties with Brussels.
爱丁堡大学政治学教授劳拉• 克拉姆对《基督教科学箴言报》说,苏格兰人民拥欧情绪高涨更多是因为苏格兰人民本身而非与布鲁塞尔保持密切联系所带来的利益。
