I am reminded of the time when I was briefly a partner in one of the large UK-wide accountancy practices. At a partners' meeting I made a modest suggestion about some independent action we might take in Scotland. One of the more senior partners looked at me with horror and thundered across the table: "London will tell us what to do!" That was so clearly the Unionist mindset. Independent Scottish thinking of any political variety is not required. Just listen for your master's voice.
