Aye, there's the rub.

Even though our parliament in Edinburgh can be vetoed by many London based, Westminster controlled authorities and although the Scots pay over the odds for this political S&M, English MPs are starting to react.

As I've always said, I'm all for ENGLISH INDEPENDENCE.

An end to the 'Union' would be welcomed by most people, and I think, thank goodness its coming fast now!

Then we can be Scots and English, family and friends, business partners and rivals, but no longer synchronous drudges to the outmoded Treaty of 1707 .
