What is SCOTTISH INDEPENDENCE and why is it a big issue? | Newsround

Scottish independence is a very big issue in Britain, but what does it mean and why is it so important to many people in Scotland?
At the centre of the issue is the fact that Scotland is a country, but so is the United Kingdom, which Scotland is a big part of. Scottish people are both Scottish and British - just as people in England, Wales and Northern Ireland could describe themselves as being from two places.
