It Seems Scotland Played Into Britain's Hands

You've probably followed everything that transpired during the Scottish Independence Referendum. The SNP and Tories went head-on explaining their platforms and the consequences of both outcomes, positive or negative. Eventually, the Tories won over majority of Scots by offering them devolved, state-only powers and the exclusion of Britons from Scottish lawmaking.

It sounds like a great deal. Without having to leave the pound sterling, Scotland is soon set to prosper.

Or at least so it thought.

Scottish MPs are complaining that Scotland is now unable to vote for English-only laws. They could not criticise laws that only concern the Brits.

I mean, that's common sense for devolved powers, right?

SNP Spokesman Pete Wishart, I think was having a force-of-habit moment when he said the English have been ignoring Scotland.

But sometimes, there's that looming feeling that the tories knew what was going to happen. 

In fact, I think the tories intended Scotland to be flushed out of Westminster's issues and they agreed Holyrood's issues should be its own problems.

It's just as well because the English just submitted their first English-only law. This would mean less opposition, which usually comes from Scotland's MPs.

But that also means more English Nationalism, and also more Scottish Nationalism. Which brings us once again, to a probable new Independence Referendum in the next few years.
