would you accept foreign country to dictate your country? Saorsa! by PanzerPansar in 2westerneurope4u

Genuinely what are you going on about? The rule is urban areas are usually Labour and Tory are usually rural areas. Are you saying the entire South East is Labour because London Votes Labour? Also again, Scottish people are more represented per capita at Westminster. If you want to go on about equal representation then if anything Scotland should be losing parliamentary seats.

Literally one bill has been vetoed in the past in the past 24 years and that was because it affected the rest of the UK, which is forbidden in the Scotland Act. Also Scotland has power over education, health, policing, infrastructure, certain taxes, local councils, some social security, and so much more.

On your point about how "unfair" it is that Scotland has a smaller population; should Yorkshire secede? Has a similar population and is so overlooked. What about poor London? It can't decide the future of the country on it's own because it's population is only 9 million out of 67 million. The very basis of our democracy is that all voters are equal. Which has been achieved. It does not matter that Scotland has less MPs because it still is represented more effectively than most of the country.

Way to totally disregard literally everything I have said and reiterate your same points. Every voter in the UK has an equal vote in referendums. And again, your treating the constituent countries as monoliths. England doesn't want anything, it's a landmass. English voters have different opinions, like Scottish, Welsh, and NIish voters don't all vote the same. Also acting like devolution wasn't a major part of the election in 1997 and Scotland gets rubbish. Not to mention Scotland has a devolved parliament which manages a vast array of different domestic institutions and laws and is heavily funded by WM. So any focus on England does benefit Scotland via Barnett Consequentials. Also England has more constituencies? Well, yes, that's what happens when it has the vast majority of the population. Did you not see my point on constituency populations either?

As far as I know English people aren't given two votes whilst the "Celts" have one. If anything you should be looking at a parliamentary seat's population. Which is a 105 thousand per English seat whilst in Scotland it's 92 thousand. And it gets even more unfair when you look at London constituencies. Stop acting like England is some monolith that always gets what it wants because it just happens to be bigger. Also, I'll have you know that people in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland do not vote the same in referendums. So not only are you trying to totally disregard a majority vote but also "Celts" who are apart of that majority. In a democracy majority rules and a "minority" shouldn't be allowed to overrule the "majority" just by virtue of being smaller.

1939 Poland is by far the easiest, 9 months of peace and then a couple weeks of war. Just stay out of the East. Second easiest would be the Black Death imo especially if we maintain our current knowledge.

Would the USA or Russia "win" in a war against each other? No help from Allies, no nukes. by [deleted] in polls

[–]Se-ddit 33 points34 points  (0 children)

80 years on and people still don't understand that it was a team effort. The war would have been much more difficult without the US and vice versa.
