Having got onto this topic perhaps someone can help me out. The Tories are
against closer integration into Europe claiming loss of sovereignty etc.
If
that is really the case why are they also against returning sovereignty to
Scotland and Wales?
I'd guess it's because they're Conservatives, e.g. content with the status
quo. This includes the unwritten constitution which centralizes all power in
the Crown, and therefore in the government at Westminster. Therefore moving
power to Edinburgh is just as offensive as moving power to Brussels -
because it detracts from the Sovreignty of Parliament.
