The Scottish First Minister, Alex Salmond, says Britain’s Prime Minister, David Cameron, is actually pushing more Scots to support an independent Scotland.

This after a poll, by the newspaper Sunday Express, showed a surge to 51% of Scots supporting independence from the United Kingdom!

“I think that some of that increase in support for independence is a reaction against the sort of dictatorial line we’ve been getting from some of the pronouncements from Downing Street.”-Alex Salmond

Even Scottish politicians opposed to independence admit they can’t fight their own people’s desires: “I trust the Scottish people more than I trust politicians.”-Henry McLeish, Labour First Minister
