A sockingly bad and factually incorrect article which can have no other purpose but to reinforce the political framework and propaganda that denies fundamental political rights to Scots and Catalans, and, I suspect, Quebecers. Very few Scots see themselves as firstly British and then Scots. Likely less than 10%. Almost half of Scots don't see themselves as British at all. In fact 45% voted for independence. By all measure, when this large percentage vote for such a radical and fundamental change in their form of Government then clearly there is a huge desire for change. A substantial percentage of people voted no simply out of fear. Fear of loosing a british pension, british benefits not to mention the intimidation mounted by Westminster and even Obama and Clinton. Changing demographics will inevitably lead to Scottish independence.
This article's analysis of the Scottish independence movement is just plain wrong and demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of the Scottish people.
