Scottish 'independence' will be an unfortunate joke
Alex Salmond's dream of inching Scotland quietly towards independence is working – and Westminster does not know what to do about it. A significant new poll reveals that since the Scottish National Party won outright control at Holyrood in May, there has been a surge in support for breaking up the union.
IMO: If the European Union had worked it might have been a good idea. But, obviously the EU is no bed of roses. Scotland in effect is a UK Lichtenstein - too small to survive except to the benefit of warlords and so-called 'businessmen'. Whilst undoubtedly most of the Westminster parliament is not great, forsaking that is a mistake. Only rats leave a sinking ship, and constructive action against a weak ineffectual Government is certainly the right way.
