But the UK is a union between 4 countries, the component nations are still countries.

It's part of a country, the United Kingdom. The greatest in the world.


The word country is synonymous with state. The 4 constituent parts of the UK are no more unique legally and politically than the various states of Germany or Australia. Scotland is a region of the UK and describing it as such is perfectly acceptable and correct.

The thought of an independent territory which has Arctic Monkeys, Pulp, Brian Clough, Geoffrey Boycott, Yorkshire Tea, Tetley's, Betty's Tea Shop is amazing.


We can even have our own airline! :biggrin:

I really don't see the point in even more independence even if it was for the region I lived in you can give councils more powers if you want more local decision making
