Scotland's Strong Independence Movement is Hardly a 'Faint Blip'

I don't have a subscription to the Wall Street Journal unfortunately however this article certainly begins on a very positive note:

Scotland's Strong Independence Movement Is Hardly a 'Faint Blip'
Word Count: 629

Scottish and English readers were probably surprised to read Quentin Letts's assertion that Scottish independence is a "faint blip" on the political radar ("Scot Free," editorial page, Dec. 8). After all, the latest numbers show 52% of Scots and 59% of English people are in favor of Scottish independence. Mr. Letts may call this a "faint blip," but in democracies the more appropriate term is "majority."

It is a certain type of critic who takes issue with the basic principal of self-governance, and I am pleased to say that they are in the minority in the United Kingdom.
