    Scottish devolution - a weird thought

    Just bandying legs with scooter scot in another thread and I had this strange thought.

    All sovereign states spy on all other sovereign states, no ?

    so does that mean that the jocks will have to set up their own MI5 and MI6 , and will they be recruiting IT specialist spies. och aye scooter me lad, or is that 006.9 ?

          A British government plot to remind Scots that they won't have MI5 & GCHQ etc to help prevent cybercrime if they vote for independence

              Ireland provides a reasonable model for Scotland in many such areas (except joining the Euro which is a whole other story).
