We don't want it. The Welsh Assembly is more like the committee of a workingmen's club and shouldn't be trusted with scissors never mind complete control of the country.

Devolution was a pander to the nationalists i never heard any of my welsh or scottish friends banging on about wanting it or needing it and many of them are not happy with how it is working out for them. I guess some politicians have to stick to a point regardless of how many people they actually represent with it to feel they are needed or have meaning.

When it was first suggested by Labour I was pretty much in favour of it but once I saw how terrible the WAG were at management, I quickly changed my mind. I have no complaints with free prescriptions and hospital parking but that's as far as it goes.

Even communism had it's good points but as a whole you wouldn't want it and i think it is the same for devolution a few carrots doesn't make up for the utter mess of the whole if you see what i mean :).

Communism - wonderful theory, then people/reality got involved....

Yes indeed and like Capitalism those at the top tend to get get rich and leave the vast majority of us picking up the pieces.

The SNP is now saying the referendum will take place in the autumn of 2014. Linkage to follow ...

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

Obviously not. Then again you're English, remember? ;)

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

I just want the Scottish MPs not to be able to vote on matters pertaining to England.That's as independent as I want things to be.:erm:

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

That makes sense.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

No, I'm Welsh. And the majority of us do not want devolution.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

If Scotland did vote for independance would they have to apply for EU membership (should they want it) or would it be granted automatically?

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

If Scotland were to break away from the United Kingdom then it would have to negotiate separate membership of any and all international bodies it wanted to join, including the EU.

Are we all not a part of a island conjoined? (apart from Ireland)? If any broke away would they try and break away the land mass?
