Cross border attitudes
Several parts of this website cover how people in Wales, England and Scotland think their part of the UK should be governed. But how people think the other parts of the UK are and should be governed may influence their views about how their part of the UK should be run.

Here, we present people’s views on these issues, including what England and Wales made of the Scottish independence referendum and what people in Scotland think about the prospect of an English parliament.
