Why do you think that there currently is English tyranny?

Scotland is a rich country, with vast oil, gas, coal, water, timber and human reserves. Yet for years, no matter how Scotland voted, it was the majority in England that decided who ruled in Westminster and controlled these resources. For 18 years of Conservative (Tory) rule (1979-1997), unwanted policies were forced on Scotland, while London ignored Scottish demands for Self-Government.
Scotland has taken the first steps to regaining her self-confidence providing for the first time ever a democratically elected and accountable system of government. The Scottish Parliament will initially only be responsible for home affairs and will be subject to Westminster, however, it is expected that as it grows in confidence and ability it will seek more and more areas of responsibility.
The New Labour Government held a referendum on 11th September 1997 in which 74% voted YES to reconvening the Scots Parliament, and 64% voted YES to give it limited tax-varying powers.
