Talk:Scottish devolution referendum, 1979

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] "Scotland Said Yes"

This section needs better citing and consistency - it seems to simultaneously argue that devolution both was and wasn't an issue in the Thatcher years, and that the Conservative decline in Scotland during this time (which was actually less than the decline in the Heath years) was due to Labour's failure to deliver devolution and a minimum support threshold, rather than problems on the Thatcher government's watch (e.g. the rates revaluation then the poll tax) and the vicious circle of Scotland regularly electing a clear majority of non-Conservative MPs but being governed by Conservatives elected UK wide.
