It was suggested on the new's today, that the only reason tony has agreed to a referendum is that he knows that if he'd tried to force it through parliament it would have been shot down in flames by the house of lord's. (which funnily enough he's been trying to de-fang for some time now)
What I don't get is that Scot's were all for devolving power from the rest of the UK, but wanted to join up with europe. (I don't paticularly mean you gordon, I used to live in Edinburgh and it was a fairly regular topic of conversation)
