A fresh push for independence has emerged in Scotland after a majority of voters across the United Kingdom approved a British exit, or Brexit, from the European Union, while Scottish voters opposed the departure.
当英国多数投票人赞成英国脱欧的时候,苏格兰投票人却反对英国脱欧,随后苏格兰又发起了新一波的独立运动。
Nicola Sturgeon, the first minister of the Scottish National Party, announced Thursday that she aims to introduce legislation next week that could pave the way for another independence vote before Britain formally leaves the EU.
星期四,苏格兰民族党首席大臣尼科娜·斯特金宣布,下周她打算出台相关立法,以便在英国正式脱欧之前为苏格兰进行第二次独立公投铺平道路。
Ignoring Scotland's parliamentary voice would be an act of "constitutional vandalism," Sturgeon added, challenging Brexit's legal basis.
斯特金对英国脱欧的法律依据提出质疑,并补充道,忽视苏格兰议会的意见是一种“破坏宪法”的行为。
In 2014, a referendum for Scottish independence from the UK failed, garnering only 45 percent of the vote.
2014年,苏格兰脱英公投失败,当时只有45%的投票人支持苏格兰独立。
During the June Brexit vote, however, Scots showed a clear divide on the issue of continued EU membership: 62 percent voted in favor of remaining in the bloc, versus 47 percent in England, 48 percent in Wales, and 56 percent in Northern Ireland.
