Monty, at This Scepter’d Isle, mentions the extraordinary comments of Cardinal Keith O'Brien, the head of the Catholic Church in Scotland, who crossed the Rubicon: to tell his flock he would be happy to see full independence for Scotland. He ... offers his vision of an independent Scotland by pointing to Denmark and Ireland as examples of what small independent nations can achieve. Seems to me the Scots can’t have it both ways. If they go independent, what are their exports? There’s goodwill from Europe but this won’t put food into the bairns’ mouths. Sending Edward’s army home to think again also does not appear to be forward thinking.Monday, October 16, 2006
