    Simples.
    But that would mean Gordon would be sacked!!

    Surely you can't be suggesting that!!

      don't give up this is precisely the attitude you have to fight long as you believe there can be a change there will be.

        foxbat3000, have you ever seen a grown man naked?
        How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

            Exactly, and you never know there may be more oil up in Scotland.

              Are you a fascist?

              A national socialist?

              Or have you no idea of how the rest of the world would look upon a new nationalism in England?

              Bliar's government has taken us too far down the path toward Ingsoc as it is. What you are proposing is utterly, utterly, unacceptable.

              A solitary England, standing alone, would be a terrifying prospect to many nations of the world, based upon their own historical evidence.

              England is a belligerent, traditionally feudal, secular nation made up of warlike tribes but with no common identity other than pride in war.

              It is only the very careful application of government, the presence of Wales and the Union with Scotland that dilutes the English supremacy-mentality sufficiently to keep us at home and peaceful.

              A stand-alone England would be even more dangerous than a united Ireland.

              England must never again be given its own government.

              Just as Germany or Japan should never be allowed to re-arm.

              We're too easy to organise, to provoke and to send to our deaths on futile missions of glory.

                I didn't want to say that myself, but I have heard rampant Scottish nationalists say that the Union with England was a Good Thing.Why? Because it was the only way we could stop their violence against us.

                I'll say one thing to those who think I'm exaggerating: how nice do you see England behaving about it, if Scotland demands and obtains independence? I see bloodshed myself, and strenuous attempts to **** up Scotland out of spite. Hand on heart, tell me you don't see that? Tell me that you don't want it, even??

                  Thanks....that was quite funny. I thought you were being serious until the "A solitary England, standing alone, would be a terrifying prospect to many nations of the world" bit

                  Considering we can't even build a football stadium without screwing it up in biblical fashion, I doubt very much that the rest of the world would quake in their boots. More likely they would just laugh at us. As usual.
                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus
