Ahh right. I think that the power the government gave to Scotland was always something they regretted, and it was clearly just done to 'keep the country together'. I am not surprised they are attempting to take it back. But so much **** goes on 'under the radar' in parliament, or is tried to be forced through with noone realizing until its too late. Its crap. Really crap and really dishonest. And surely not what the government is meant to be about, if something was above board and such, why the need to bury it until the last minute, or until after it has been done?
Thanks for the summary, much appreciated.
