] Date Posted: 19:10:58 10/22/04 Fri In reply to: Ed Harris (Venezia) 's message, "English independence..." on 12:40:14 10/22/04 Fri It could not. Perhaps if I re-phrase my closing paragraph thus: "Independence in theory could turn Scotland into an economic Switzerland, a small, extremely rich nation truely in charge of it's own economic descisions; ever able, because of her small size, to gain economic advantage over her neighbour, the E.U. Howewver, the truth is that the SNP offers exactly the opposite of this vision and so for the present have practically no chance of reaching power." At the moment there are no economic or political advantages on offer from the SNP. Also many people who vote SNP only do so for tactical reasons and would never vote yes to independence in any referendum. I hope that this is a little clearer.
