Cameron needs to be detailed and specific about what he would offer if anyone is to take him seriously. His party has a track record of opposition to serious Home Rule/ Devolution. He needs to be specific and definite before he or his party is to be trusted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069212153482249376.post-3591154685251067282012-02-16T21:42:16.298+00:002012-02-16T21:42:16.298+00:00Gareth - As you rightly point out Cameron doesn...Gareth - As you rightly point out Cameron doesn't seem to be on the same planet! Most people in Scotland and the rest of the UK are worried about unemployment, making ends meet, providing excellent Education, Health, reducing poverty and his imperialist mind-set can only focus on "A permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council". Christopher Hitchens description of Cameron as "content free" looks more and more accurate every time Cameron opens his mouth! <br /><br />Another good discussion on Scottish Independence on the radio Wales phone in today and again most opinion pro Scots and Welsh independence. I can remember a time not so long ago when this would have been an opportunity for every anti Welsh bigot to run riot, how times are a changing!!<br /><br />http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01c1966/The_Radio_Wales_PhoneIn_16_02_2012/Britnothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02669397941937145052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069212153482249376.post-27349803575422819892012-02-16T21:13:06.056+00:002012-02-16T21:13:06.056+00:00Who wants backhanders?

Why should it be now?<br /><br />As for Scotland, no-one in England very much cares if Scotland chooses to leave the Union. It is just a question of what the people of Scotland want. Not a question of 'domination', rather a right to self-determination.<br /><br />There is no great case to be made by the Prime Minister, Scottish people must decide on their own. It is their choice to leave, it has nothing to do with a desire by others to have them stay. <br /><br />Wales and the Welsh people of Wales would be wise to understand that there are no prizes on offer, no handouts and no backhanders up for grabs.<br /><br />Make your decision and live with it. That was the message from David Cameron today.kphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313438657508449613noreply@blogger.com
