This could be said for tens of millions across the whole country.
No everyone in Oregon gets the President and Congress they want, not everyone in Bavaria get the government they want, not everyone in Alice Springs get the government they want but you don't see them scrambling to secede because they quite rightly realise the strength in being part of a larger political and economic body.
is that your opinion? Lots of people disagree with you. Or ask Slovakians or Icelandics what they prefer
ps Oregon is a state, not a country.
I for one am missing the redhead content this thread formerly had.
That is all.
OK, one more...
Oregon was never a nation and has no sense of national identity.
Texas is probably the closest and there is a secessionist movement there.
The thing to remember is the the UK is almost unique today in that is a unification of several nation states. The other examples from history where clearly defined nation states formed a larger single state would include the USSR and Yugoslavia. Things went well for them
I love red heads...One of the biggest loves of my life was a red head...Crazy red but fun...
Here's a Canadian red head...She's Canadian so I'm sure she has some Scotch..........
Actually given that the USSR was created via invasions, a more accurate example would be unification via economic and political ends. The failed state of Germany springs to mind
BTW Wok I resent you posting that video, a bit of discussion and banter is OK but insinuating that my opinion is based on being one of the knuckle dragging Old Firm bigots, which are a disgrace on both sides of this referendum, is crossing a personal line imo.
I found the clip funny, and the 'insinuation' didn't for an instant cross my mind.BTW Wok I resent you posting that video, a bit of discussion and banter is OK but insinuating that my opinion is based on being one of the knuckle dragging Old Firm bigots, which are a disgrace on both sides of this referendum, is crossing a personal line imo.
