Title: As Scotland Votes on Independence, Shetland Islands Ponder Own Fate
Post by: RVtitem on September 17, 2014, 10:20:48 PM

SHETLAND ISLANDS, Scotland—People on this remote North Sea archipelago are following the Scottish independence campaign as intently as the rest of the U.K. Some even want another vote soon after—on their own independence from Scotland.

Earlier this year a group of islanders petitioned the Scottish parliament for more referendums after Thursday's vote on Scottish independence—a request that was denied.

Shetland is too tiny.  Even Scotland.  I just realized the Scots are barely 5 million.  They should stick with Britain. 

A strange little country.  Their men still wear skirts.
