] Date Posted: 14:46:27 11/10/04 Wed In reply to: Jim (Canada) 's message, "I didn't really mean that remark about the UK not being worth it." on 14:35:47 11/10/04 Wed Yes, Jim did get us all with that reaction, albeit being justified to small degree. I think Blair is making a gross miscalculation in underestimating the level of opposition in Scotland to this proposal. The Save the Scottish Regiments Campaign is threatening to put up candidates against Labour seats in Scotland at the next election, which will surely affect their vote. Given that Blair relies heavily on his Scottish MPs, this is a decision that could cost him dear! To the Canadians here: Is there any reaction amongst the Canadian forces with this proposal? By attacking our regimental history, they are also attacking yours! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
