Over at Samizdata there is a discussion of Scottish independence. Mr Brian Micklethwait, writing out of London, gives us a longish blog post that starts "I have long thought, first, that the United Kingdom has for some time been heading towards being the Non-United Kingdom, and second, that this would probably be a very good thing."
There is a certain amount of "inside baseball" in the linked post, but there is food for thought regarding how the world is evolving in the 21st Century. The idea of an independent Scotland and an independent England is interesting. Who gets the Queen and who gets the nuclear weapons? Who gets the Labor Party?
And with Prince William and Kate taking a posting at RAF Lossiemouth (EGQS), in Scotland, maybe he is planning a career in a future Scottish Air Force.
