An independent Scotland may make Ireland irrelevant - so vote "yes"

 (A further letter to the Taoiseach)
I have made serious allegations of criminal activity and believe that
documentary evidence is readily available. It is not just at DCU the
crimes were committed, but – as I indicated – the music industry.
Indeed, it could be argued that what was being planned at Ireland was
a massive sell-off of the universities, the music, everything.

Ironically, Irish corruption  may allow an independent Scotland get a
great start. Scotland already has universities much higher ranked than
ours and its artists and engineers have not had to put up with Fianna
Fail so are better placed than ours.

Maybe this exchange is simply the government collecting information
with no intention to act; but as an Irishman I must show that I did
care sufficiently to predict how we should re-assert our sovereignty;

I am sympathetic to the constraints you experience from the ECB/IMF
but a “yes” vote from Scotland with its implicit rejection of
neoliberalism will provide an opening for you to cast off the ECB/IMF
shackles and  indeed become a nation once again, perhaps with
overwhelmingly protestant Scotland  guaranteeing the rights of
Ireland’s Protestant co-religionists of Alex Salmond  in a loose
confederation.

PS Those wondering about the wisdom of an ex-pat advising the Taoiseach may do well to consider that the current Ostrich strategy is unlikely to work;

This is particularly the case as it emerges from "mandarins" who believed that Lenin visited Ireland during the Russian civil war;

Maybe they thought it was Lennon?

PPS The content above has now been acknowledged by the Taoiseach.



As companies like BP come out for "no" in Scotland we are getting a sense of what the years 1916-1924 must have been like in Ireland. The added complication of having to defeat the British militarily after repeatedly voting “yes” in Ireland  will not have to be faced by the Scots. Anything other than “yes” is a national disgrace from which they will not recover, particularly after we showed then the way and took the brunt of British violence.

A “No” vote will make it even more urgent that we cure the pathological state of Irish society so that our shared culture can persist in the world

PPPS (14/9) Remarkable  party politics this past week.

1. Gordon Brown and others announce that the status quo is untenable and that the original option Salmond requested of increased  devolution will follow a "no" vote

2. Al Darling seems to amplify this, then goes on the Scotsman to speecify - nothing

3 Hague confirms this by saying Westminster has planned  no additional powers for holyrood

4. Cameron announces  he loves his country more than his party

The biggest party political winners from a "yes" would be the Tories as Labour will lose 40 + seats at Westminster.. So the Tories seem to have a wing that would prefer Scotland leave...........

 Seán O Nualláin

Finally  (4/2015) We seem to be close to a situation wherein a coalition of the SNP, SDLP and the Sinn feiners who take the oath with their fingers crossed hold the balance of power in Westminster. Indeed, for the English to maintain their own sovereignty, they may be compelled to slough off the Celtic "fringe" ........
