Very interesting, Neil, thank you. Many years ago, in a different world, the "Europe of the Regions," I knew lots of people who were sort of Scots Nationalists, although "national" was heavily qualified by "Europe," and so it was more of a London/Brussels trade . . . like I said, it seems long ago.

Yes, that was the dream, to leave behind the empire and become a Celtic tiger or a progressive Scandi-nation. Feels a long time ago now!

Ireland imploded, the Scandinavians decided they'd had enough progress . . . yeah, long time ago.
