Annotation | A letter written as if from Melbourne, VIC, Australia February 11, 1920. The MPs representing Scotland at the time William Ewart Gladstone (1809-98; Prime Minister four times between 1868 and 1892) was in power were English and ignorant of Scotland. As a result, they supported Home Rule, which passed. Poor quality Scottish MPs were elected to the new Scottish Parliament, which quickly degenerated into corruption and demagoguery and impoverished Scotland. Home Rule has been withdrawn and some Scottish will return from Australia. |
