You know how the delightful Mr Salmond of the Scottish National Party insists that within the next four years he will bring before the Scottish Parliament a Bill for a referendum on Independence for Scotland. And how the PC worthies are all bleating about how we must maintain the Union at all costs?

Well it seems that, if the referendum returns a majority in favour of independence, then at the point of dissolution of the Union each country, England and Scotland, will have to renegotiate their membership of the EU, because it will be impossible to determine which country, England or Scotland, would be the lawfull successor to the former United Kingdom and its Treaties.

An Independent Scotland has my vote! (or at least it would if I had one, but as I am English and not Scottish I am hardly likley to be invited to that particular bunfight)

Still, where there is life there is hope.

It sounds all lovely and 16th century-ish.

Will we be able to execute traitors again?
