To: Paine in the Neck
And yet, that a mere parcel o' rogues, for English gold, sold Scotland into union in the first instance is not absurd?

Romantic nationalism was a bad idea when the Germans first thought it up, and it still is.

There is no person now living in Scotland who can demonstrate an injury from the 1701 Act of Union, even going back six generations.

Therefore, the status of the Union should be up to all enfranchised persons now living in the Union.

To: Jim Noble

Was romantic nationalism German (Prussian) or French revolution derived?
