Nice to see so
many in the Conservative Party demanding a referendum on leaving a union.
However, the
referendum that they should be backing is on their doorstep.
One sure-fire
way that the Eurosceptics in the Tory Party and elsewhere could renegotiate the
terms of EU membership would be to back Scottish independence.
After
separation, both Scotland
and the remaining parts of the old union would have, as new nation states,
reapply for membership.
The Tories
however, have never seen the benefit of a separate Scotland
which would rid them of all those irritating Scottish Labour MPs and give them
the chance to rule in perpetuity.
And as fellow
members of the EU, their students could study at Scotland’s
universities for free.
Just a thought.
