Scottish independence has been such a dream for so long that it hardly seems real…which is what the English must have assumed. Now that the vote is close I have to say this is long overdue, as is Irish independence. There is such a long history of treating both the celtic nations with derision and downright abuse that I have a hard time understanding why they would want to stay part of the United Kingdom. As we did, they can remain part of the commonwealth and have a lot of association with England, but there's almost no purpose to remaining a part of the "country" when they are already a country internationally? I don't get why they wouldn't separate. It's time.
