The Scottish For Yes

The news is startling if inspiring: Scotland's greatest modern poet, Edwin Morgan, has left a million pounds to the SNP, for the campaign for an independent Scotland.  Poetry Has Made Something Happen?  Hopefully.

    Hopefully not! If England and Wales 'lost' Scotland, we would also have to 'lose' Northern Ireland which is nothing but a drain on our resources. I personally believe that England and Wales would do just fine together but would far rather keep the United Kingdom intact.

    Best wishes from Simon
