Hello everyone. I'm new to the forum, although I have been reading the posts for quite a while. I hadn't come across alternative histoy before, but now that I have I've become hooked. Now that I am hooked, I thought I should attempt my own timeline and thought about the Scottish devolution referendum in 1979. The result was a close vote in favour, although an amendment to the bill meant that 40% of the ELECTORATE had to vote yes for the bill to pass. My timeline would be based on the Commons voting against the Cunninghame ammendement, meaning the result of the referendum would stand. The problem is I would like Scotland, in this alternative timeline, to be independent by now and wonder what sort of scenario would make that happen. Great to be a part of such a fantastic forum.
