David Cameron's epitaph: The Last PM of the UK [View all]

[denem]

Scottish people would have voted for 'devo max'. That's why it's not an option. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2012/oct/15/scottish-independence-devo-max-referendum

David Cameron gave Scotland an all or nothing choice - Vote for Independence or the status quo. The Scottish National Party wanted a vote on ‘Devolution Max’, a devolution of all powers excepting defence, foreign policy, currency and banking. Cameron refused. He bet the UK, and he looks like losing.

The Scottish people want independence - from Thatcherism. Cameron has given them only one way out. He himself brought back Thatcherism with a vengeance - tax cuts for the rich, a bedroom tax for those on welfare, hunger in the streets, privatisation of the NHS and, of course, ‘Austerity’, crippling cuts to government services. Scotland never agreed with Thatcherism, not now, not then, not ever.

But, the Tory Goons and Stooges kept on insisting, if you don’t want the Thatcher Government Of The Day, you must give up Citizenship, Sterling, Europe, working rights, the Kingdom. There Is No Alternative. Scotland knows Thatcherism back to front. And they despise its apologists.

Now at the last minute, Cameron is talking about more devolution. He has probably nailed his coffin shut right there. Heck of a job Davey. That Scottish Doctor Who is an alien, cancel his passport.
