More people care about Scotland joining the EU than those that do living in Scotland. That's what I hear from those Germans I speak too.

Personally I'd love Scotland to be using the euro. It would make my life much easier."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Originally posted by Batcher View PostThe thing is, with the partial PR system we have in Scotland, it's a much fairer system and one the people can influence.
You will still end up with tulip politicians making tulip decisions and betraying the electorate, but I guess at least it will be your own tulip.

Originally posted by Batcher View PostI don't think that's correct. I read an article the other day where it was said they agreed to talk in the event of a No vote to get an agreement much like we've been promised more powers by people not in the postion to grant them. So far, no agreement has been reached and it's caused frustration in Quebec. I'll try and find a link.
Wings Over Scotland | A letter from Quebec
"Here, the term “Night of the Long Knives” was used to refer to the night of November 4, 1981, when the Prime Ministers of Canada and its provinces agreed in complete secrecy to sign the patriation of the Canadian Constitution – and did so, literally and purposefully, behind Quebec’s back. In the end, the much hyped “offers of extra powers” and “position to dictate terms” amounted to nothing.
To this day, the Canadian Constitution lacks Quebec’s signature. We are still in a constitutional limbo more than thirty years after our first referendum. However, all things considered, these are technicalities"Comment
