Well.......

They now have a Scottish Parliament, which on the whole probably makes no-one very happy. The devolutionists get a smidgen of power but are still bound to Britain. The anti-devolutionists get an extra layer of bureaucracy.

They do seem to have been busy. Kinda sorta. Scotland now has it's very own dog-poop law. Hurrah for semi-independence!

We had a devolution referendum in the seventies.
Think there was about 30% turnout (which sounds really apathetic, but it was generally assumed that a no-show counted as a "No").
Most Scots "hate" the English, but couldnae care less aboot bein thare ain country.
