Wise words..........





If Scotland gains its independence in the forthcoming
referendum, the remainder of the United Kingdom will be
known as the "Former United Kingdom" ......or FUK. >
In a bid to discourage the Scots from voting 'yes' in the
referendum, The Government have now begun to campaign with
the slogan "Vote NO, for FUK's sake" >
They feel the Scottish voters will be able to relate to
this.

It will be interesting to find out what percentage voted for/against separation. The United Kingdom would have faced the same problems as Canada will if Quebec decides at some point in the future to separate.

Problems would actually be BIGGER for the separated countries, however.
What currency to use. Handling taxation, welfare, all those good monetary issues.

It is said that 90% of those eligible turned out for this historic vote, and the decision to remain as part of the United Kingdom was only 55%.

I know. Scary, isn't it?

Another upheaval just isn't something the world needs right now, I don't think.
