Re: Scots demand independence from Britain

Hi Meshack,

I share your views. The English are now debating whether to accept Gordon Broen as the next Bristish Prime Minister when Blair goes later this year. The same makes our kikuyu brothers wonder whether they can accept a Luo President. Yugoslavia broke up when Serbs could not accept any one else other than their own to be President of the Union. We have similarities in the USA where only if you are a WASP ( White Anglo Saxon Protestant ) - Kennedy broke the rule and it has not happened again in over 200 years, and they killed him anyway - you can be President. Obama has no chance in this scenario.

If we live in a multi ethnic community where others think they are more equal than the rest, you have a recipe for perpetual conflict from stiff competition over contriol of limited resources.

We have therefore to mitigate our losses by demanding control of our own destiny and resources; complete devolution of power not some cosmetic constituitional arrangement which leave us without power over taxes and security.
