Poll: SNP set to seize power at Holyrood
I feel that if wee continue to be part of the UK, wee will lose our identity, cultural, ethnic etc… A good example of this is the traditional language of Scotland is Gaelic. This is the language that the Scottish people are meant to speak. I find it's an outrage that most Scots can't even talk it or understand it. Now I am hearing that the Scottish Parliament can't hold a Referendum on Independence because Westminster says no due to some regulation. I find it's a joke because they are trying to give Iraqis freedom but when it comes to Scotland, they say no. I think the SNP has found a way around it because the UK is part of the EU and is what the UK has signed when joining the EU. I think is to do with self-determination of Scottish people or Scots Law. Report as unsuitable 14.

Panlilio presents cash bundles at Senate 'cash gifts' probe
Teofisto Guingona III. In his letter, Guingona said the information could be relevant to the Senate investigation especially since the League of Provinces of the Philippines, the association of governors, had said the money given to Panlilio came from its funds. Guingona said that due to the Bank Secrecy Law, the Anti-Money Laundering Council should be asked to investigate and determine the owner of the bank account. The Bukidnon congressman added that the investigation should determine the purpose of the distribution of the cash and if President Arroyo was involved in the purported distribution. The report did not indicate if Panlilio, who has maintained custody of the P500,000, cooperated in Guingona's investigation.
