Right or wrong

SO there we have it. During the Queen’s Speech to the Houses of Parliament, we are assured that Her Majesty’s Government will continue to make the case for Scotland to remain part of the United Kingdom.

Almost in the next breath, we are assured that Her Majesty’s Government will defend the rights of the Falkland Islanders and the Gibraltarians to determine their own future.

It appears that all of Her Majesty’s subjects have rights. But we Scots, clearly, have less rights than others.
