Scotland the Brave!

According to the Scottish National Party, they have recently been taking up arms against the new "Trident" nuclear weapon which would increase the United Kingdoms nuclear arsenal. One spokesman for the SNP said and I quote:

"If the London government is so keen to develop and extend Britain's nuclear capability, let them base their missiles on the Thames. The Clyde has been defiled long enough."

I agree with that Scotland even though being a territory in the United Kingdom, Scotland has gained over the years economic and political freedoms. With England wishing to build up arsenals on the shores of Scotland is not only an affront to the independance of Scotland but a assault to freedom everywhere within the United Kingdom. If the British parilament wishes to approve of this missile I have no quarrels that is the response of English citizens and their leadership. But forcing these decisions on Scotland and any other country in the isle is not only morally wrong but constitutionally unsound!

So the SNP is hoping to win some crucial seats in parliament to prevent the measure of the British Labour party and the current Scottish Labour Party which folds under the power of the British parliament. I hope that this situation would be beneficial for Scotland in keeping their independance while still keeping crucial ties with the British Government....

After all, shouldn't Scotland's fate be decided by the Scots? Not the Welsh, the Irish, and certainly not the British!

Wow, I did not know all the complications the Scots were having with the British Parliment. This blog was very interesting and informative. It was also well written. It just goes to show I need to pay more attention to the world around me as everything effects everyone. A Butterfly flaps his wings . . .
