Different times, differently treated and a different fight. It wouldn't surprise me if DAESH were to try to hit Glasgow, Cardiff or Edinburgh. Being targeted for what can be seen as London Policy, it would cause irreparable constitutional crises.
Errm. I am from Northern Irish stock. Been whipped both ways. I believe in a true republic for both nations.
