Is it really true that United Kingdom should be as one, instead of the separations that has happened the last few years or should they go back to the way they used to be when they were on top?
In December 2007 David Cameron held a speech in Edinburgh in Scotland about a union between Scotland and England. He talks about inspiration and how strong Great Britain has become. How much better they can be together than separated. “Better than in perfect union than in perfect divorce “.
In his speech he addresses some earlier facts about Great Britain’s history. Especially the facts about the great things they have accomplished throughout the years. And how much better and stronger they used to be when they were all one. He also looks upon the fact that they would not have been able to become this great and powerful country when separated.
“We must not allow the legitimate and affectionate doubling up of patriotic pride
English and British
Scottish and British
British and proud of it
to be pushed aside by a coarse and casual nationalism.”
On May 1st, our countries marked the three hundredth anniversary of the Act of Union.
Two days later, the SNP, who want to break apart that Union, took office in the Scottish Parliament.
