Thoughts on another Scottish Referendum

[f4f3]

That part is crying small tears and listening to this (and please, do listen to it - it says more about Scotland's, or at least MY Scotland's attitude to race and nationalism than any 12 Guardian articles, and it's only a couple of minutes long):

That part of me is going to be calm, and rational, and answer fear and hate (and there will be a lot of both) with information, for those who are afraid, and an attempt to understand those who hate, and why.

But part of me, of course, is dancing up and down and singing this...
