The Union is there for the Sake of the Labour Party I just spotted this post over at Britnat Watch. The crux of his argument is that Scotland and Wales are ballot fodder for the British Labour party so the union serves the Labour party very well. It also mentions that England would do much better for themselves if the Labour party were forced to tailor its policies towards just one nation. It isn't surprising that Labour are fighting to keep the union right now. But, fighting against change to keep the status quo is ultimately a losing battle.  ¶ 00:53
