SIR – “Let the English pay” (letters, August 22) calls to mind, correctly I hope, that when the Scots failed to create “new Caledonia” in South America some 300 years ago, we English saved them from bankruptcy on condition they joined “the Union”.
If the Scots vote for independence in the coming referendum might not history repeat itself some time in the future?
