Make the question on the ballot papers of an indyref2 more specific

Petition Details

If Scotland does get its Indyref 2, make the question on the ballot papers such that it involves 3 options; Stay in the UK with more devolved powers / Gain independence with full border controls / Stay with the UK and more power to Westminster (less law-making powers with Hollyrood)

Additional Information

Make the rule that if none of the options obtain 50% or more of the vote, then it's Status Quo, and UK Parliament has the power, but not the obligation, to take more power back from Scottish parliament.
