An Independent Scotland Could Face Currency Limbo: British Lawmakers
British lawmakers warned on Friday that Scotland may be left in a currency limbo if it votes for independence, because it is uncertain if it could continue using the pound or immediately join the euro. Uncertainty over what currency would be used after independence remains a major campaign issue--just weeks before Scots vote in a September 18th referendum on whether to leave the United Kingdom, after 307 years of union with England. Britain's three main political parties have ruled out a formal currency union, but Scottish nationalist leader Alex Salmond has said he is confident a deal would be done and that Scotland cannot be stopped from keeping the pound.

England Whose England Part 2 of 2
A 1970's film that expresses the distress and discontent of British people with mass immigration.
Recent documentaries on immigration are only ever portrayed from a pro-immigrant perspective, with typical 'politically correct' bias ignoring the social distress caused to white British people in areas affected by immigration.
This video challenges ubitiquous pro-immigrant propaganda, expressing the suffering of white British people from mass immigration and their fears for future generations of our people.
The latter part of the film also demonstrates how organised 'anti-racism' is in effect a political tool used by far left extremists for the advance of their ideology.
All credit to Candour magazine and the A.K. Chesterton Trust for preserving the film through the years and converting it into an electronic format. More information about the trust can be found at where a notable book list can be viewed and details of how to subscribe to the magazine obtained.

Trainspotting | 'The Worst Toilet in Scotland' (HD) - Ewan McGregor | MIRAMAX
EU workers in UK express concern, confusion
(25 Jun 2016) European Union workers who work in Britain expressed fear and confusion over what happens next on Saturday, as their adoptive country begins the long process of unwinding its many ties to continental Europe.
An entire class of cosmopolitan entrepreneurs, workers, students and strivers who have made the UK their home since Britain opened its borders to its EU neighbours now see their futures in limbo.
Immigrants have changed the face of Britain, turning London's Kensington neighbourhood into a suburb of Paris, sleepy English towns like Boston into Baltic enclaves, and filling supermarket shelves across the nation with Polish lager and Wiejska sausage.
The biggest impact may be on the Poles - the largest group of foreign EU workers in the UK.
An estimated 850,000 people have left Poland for the UK to seek wages and opportunities far beyond what they could ever expect in their ex-communist homeland - a flow so dramatic that Polish is now England's second-most-spoken language.
But despite others' concerns, Polish businessman Andrew Makulsky was optimistic.
Over the long-term though, the lives of the estimated three million EU citizens living in Britain may change in ways big and small.
A survey commissioned by the Financial Times found that if Britain's current immigration rules were applied to EU nationals, the overwhelming majority would lose their jobs and be forced to leave the country - catastrophic news for Spanish barristers, Romanian strawberry pickers, German investment bankers and the industries that rely on them.
Greek expatriate Flora Michalopoulou settled in the United Kingdom in early 2014 after difficult times in Greece following the financial crisis.
A trained psychologist working with autistic children, she worked for months with no pay. When her partner's employment suffered the same fate, they decided to move to Scotland.
Flora had previously studied in England but by 2014 it felt too expensive, so they opted for Edinburgh.
She said the UK's vote to leave the European Union came as a shock and she doesn't really know what it vote will mean.
Back in London, French investment banker Marc Miller feared the consequences the referendum would have on him because of London's role as a financial services centre.
Under British law, EU immigrants who have resided in the UK for more than five years can apply for permanent residency.
In practice, however, few EU citizens have bothered as their passports already allow them to travel freely and easily access education, health care, pensions and other services in Britain.

Challenges for UK energy policy

His previous posts included Shadow Energy Minister (2005-2010), Deputy Chairman of the Conservative Party (2003-2005) and Shadow Minister for Young People.
In 2012, the Prime Minister appointed him as Trade Envoy to Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan. He has also been appointed as Visiting Professor at the University of Edinburgh, associated with both the Business School and the Academy of Government. From 1992-97, Charles was Member of Parliament for High Peak, during which time he was Vice-Chairman of the Conservative Party (1995-1997). Following the 1997 General Election, Charles was appointed Chief of Staff to the Rt Hon William Hague MP, when he was elected Leader of the Conservative Party.
Charles’ business career has mostly been spent working for international marketing companies. He was Founder/Chairman/Chief Executive of The Agenda Group (1999-2005), a specialist consultancy helping company Chairmen and Chief Executives with their corporate networking. Charles was born and brought up in Sussex. He went to Rugby School before going on to study Business Studies at Edinburgh University from 1977-1981.
