I think May should have announced what you said though. The way she has done makes it easy for the Nats to spin it as the referendum being blocked.
The main advantage about delaying a referendum is that it reduces the chances of Corbyn being around to campaign for Scotland to remain, which would guarante a leave vote!

The sooner London gets independence and joins the EU the better! We'll all be earning £100k each, paying 5% tax and working 20 hours a week!
