Sottish Referendum


As we crawl, some would say hurtle towards the Scottish Referendum, the likelihood of a major shake up between Scotland and England, which ever way the outcome falls, is inevitable. With the vote likely to be knife- edged what ever way it goes, 50% of the Scottish people will be dissatisfied and plainly ready for more confrontation.
The main argument was always that Scotland would be better governed by Scots,
putting  Scotland's interests at the forefront of their actions.
In terms of the way we have become used to our Establishment running our country at the behest of a class oriented, elitist hierarchy , often at odds with the needs of the bulk of the population, the English are beguiled by a political system that has so few of them at their heart.
Scotland on being granted a Parliament separate from Westminster discovered that the intrigue which is at the heart of English politics (nobles oblige) and runs deep through our governance, was at odds for the people of Scotland much as it is for the majority in England. Its just that we have not yet figured a way of releasing ourselves from the bondage which is our history.
