So If Scotland Says Yes, Will Be There A Referendum As To The Queen Of Scotland?

[DTCwordfan]

Saw the Daily Wail today and this featured.

1. Does QE2 become QE2 of Scotland?
2. Does Scotland become a Republic within the Commonwealth of which she is the Queen Bee?
3. Does Scotland invite the Pretender to the throne, coming down the Stuart lineage, ending up with the Duke of Bavaria, one King Francis 2.

Are some of the Scots being hoodwinked by the Scottish Nazi Party as Salmond et al, well a lot of them, are Republicans and want no monarch, as they want no nuclear capability and also out of NATO as it's highly unlikely that they will commit to the 2% of GNP to be spent on NATO defence pre-requisite, given all the rest that theyy have to pay for, not withstanding £1.2 trillion of debt?

does Alex Salmond definitely get a say in this then, even if the Scottish government ends up being a labour administration?

Does it really matter? As long as HM can take her holidays at Balmoral, who cares? She probably doesn't.

///Upon her accession on 6 February 1952, Elizabeth became Head of the Commonwealth and queen regnant of seven independent Commonwealth countries: the UNITED KINGDOM, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan and Ceylon.///
If Scotland are no-longer a part of The UK, why on earth would they expect to 'borrow' our Queen, anymore than they wrongly expect to borrow our Currency?

[Ellipsis]

I don't think HM ever takes a holiday outside of the UK? They are known as "Royal Visits", so Balmoral could be off the social calendar ...

[Obiter]

I do not wish to be pedantic, as there is another frequent poster on this site who fulfils that role, but the Queen is not Queen of Scotland, nor is she Queen of England, she is Queen of the UK.

for chrissakes, DTC really the Daily Wail will turn your brains to mush.
The priests at skool assured us this was worse than self-abuse in terms of public health hazard

Well, it's one more for the constitutional wrangling that will be necessary.

My own view is that, whatever, it's about time we now sit down and consider setting up the UK on a Federal basis - regional governments, regional taxes, a national assembly for UK matters with an amount of tax raising that's standard for all citizens, a much trimmed down national assembly and second house.

I have no wish at all to continue this lunacy of funding one of the most heavily subsidised entities on this planet, aka Scotland, and would prefer to have the English economy in English hands making decisions about England for us, and also our participation in the EU. Same for Wales and N. Ireland but if they want to stay within the Union, they are welcome to do so and we act as one.

Sorry DT, did not see your post.

[DTCwordfan]

It was over a cup of tea at the local tea-rooms, that I saw the said 'organ' if it can be called that, the headline being that her Maj is really hacked off with AS and his bunch.

[RandyMarsh]

can the north of england vote to go with them pls

[jeffa]

RM, that's not as unlikely as it might sound to some!

[DTCwordfan]

In a pluralistic federal system, randy, that may be feasible.....

[Obiter]

You're *** joking!

Newcastle born and bred, and the sooner the porridge munchers leave us alone , the better.

Balmoral will be the new English Embassy and the Queen will be able to stay there.

[Peter Pedant]

O god I have just noticed:

1. Does QE2 become QE2 of Scotland?

no - the first one ( Elizabeth I ) wasnt a queen of Scotland.
so will be it be Elizabeth II and I ? - like her forebear James VI and I
