Letters / Independence is alive
Round one to the No side.
While I accept the independence referendum result as in the number of votes cast for each side, I do not accept that independence is to be put in a box and left in a corner until the Unionist side allows voters in Scotland and Shetland to have another shot.
Through the referendum members of Yes Shetland discussed how the energy and enthusiasm of the Yes side might be used after the vote. We will be holding a meeting in a month or so to which all will be invited to contribute to the way forward. Independence is a live and ongoing issue.
