Proceeding contribution from Sandra Osborne (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 May 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Scotland and the Union.


Scotland and the Union

My hon. Friend makes powerful points about the benefits for Scotland of being in the Union in terms of its economy and the defence and security of our nation and jobs, but does he agree that there is also a school of thought among the nationalists that says that, if people think that it is better for Scotland to be part of the Union, they somehow love their country less or are less patriotic? Does he agree that that is a complete fallacy, and that those of us who see the benefits of being in the UK love Scotland just as much as any other Scot?
