Angela Merkel has also hinted that perhaps Germany doesn't think that Scottish independance is a great idea, saying that Europe wishes for a strong UK within Europe, to aid with Europe's bargaining/negotiating powers with the US and other leading world economies. It seems to me that both Scotland and the UK as it then would be, would be weaker for this move. Other than that, Europe seems strangely quiet on the subject.
I dunno, maybe it would be better for the Scots. But they are not the only ones disillusioned with the direction our Westminster rabble are taking us, or how they behave generally. Maybe I should declare for independance - I'll take a quick referendum - yes, it's unanimous, Nick Crisp has voted to be independant and run his own affairs!
One would hope that if Scotland does go independant, the emotionally charged extremists would be sidelined and more sensible heads would agree to work closely with the UK on various matters.
