‘They may take our lives, but they will never take our oil’
These days the battles between the Scots and the English are mainly confined to the sports field. Due to fears of Scottish devolution The Times reports that in the 1970s plans were afoot to redraw the boundaries of Scotland’s coastal waters so that it had less claim to its oil. There were even plans to divide Orkney and Shetland from Scotland.
Who knows what Westminster has up its sleeve should Scotland become independent in the near future?
