I imagine that the legal wrangling over this all will take years, possibly decades to untangle. Then you have issues of welfare state sharing with Eng/Wal/NI, currency (if it's not the Euro) & associated monetary policy, nuke-free vs NATO...it all adds up to something that will keep a bunch of "worthy" individuals tied in knots for a long time to come.<br /><br />However - the question asked as the winners prize was a straightforwardly-phrased one, and I have answered with my opinion. I am not a lawyer, politician, or constitutional expert, your mileage may vary, do your own due diligence etc etc etc.<br /><br />(Also - have I got all my "turned up late again" points for the QT quiz?)Kynonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-75570485362246178602013-06-14T10:30:24.381+01:002013-06-14T10:30:24.381+01:00Not even if they have a quiet word with the club s...Not even if they have a quiet word with the club secretary?

I seem to have misunderstood the blurb on the BBC website. Damn!<br /><br />First question : Is surveillance of our internet activity an acceptable price for national security?<br /><br />Q2: What benefits would Independence bring for young people in Scotland?<br /><br />Q3: Don’t agree that 16 to 17 year olds have enough experience to vote in Referendum, do you agree? {dimby realises he's only had 2 questions and everyone answers like they're on speed..rush rush rush.}<br /><br />Q4: Should the UK intervene in Syria?<br /><br />Well..it wasn't as bad as last week but that did set the bar very low.<br />Best bit was a kid getting a question about aliens in. Most likely for a bet. <br /><br />I think the teens should have acted like proper teenagers and all got their phones out and called each other up.<br /><br />Geroge galloway said Syria has been at the negotiating table and still is always.<br />So? So was Gaddafi. So was Saddam. His ambasadors never left the peace talks. <br />Neither did North Koreans or the UN from 1950-1953. Or North Vietnam and the US from 1965 until 1973.<br />Being at a peace table but refusing any demand sis a fig leaf. <br />He's a shameless apologist for dictators.
