Kinnock’s Westlothian warning

Interesting comments from Lord Kinnock in the Western Mail on Thursday:

Lord Kinnock added, "Unless there is a general pattern of decentralisation throughout the whole of the United Kingdom, the possibility of tensions, misunderstandings, even antagonisms between the different parts of the United Kingdom, continues." (ICWales)
