David Cameron vetoes #Rockall fishing agreement between Scotland & Ireland
Despite #Irish & Scottish governments spending 2 years agreeing to the deal – #fisheries are a devolved power – it has been shut down by the Foreign Office
Sources said the reason was entirely political - UK Govt didn't want to be seen agreeing a deal with an #EU nation
The veto is latest example of #Westminster overruling devolved #Scottish government decisions
The Seanchai was a traditional #Irish storyteller. They memorised and recited epic stories and poems from Irish mythology for the enjoyment of their audiences.` #Celtic
#Celtic#FolkloreThursday: #Ogma mac Elathan, son of Delbaeth, is according to #Irish tradition the inventor of the #Ogham script. This Son of Art was not only extremely famous in the art of speech and poetry, but also an athletic trénḟer, a power man. In the battle of #MagTuired he fought on the side of the #TuathaDéDanann against #Bres and his #Fomorians.

To be fair, South of the border, no one cares about #ScottishIndependence or a united #Ireland. I think most people wish both would happen so we don't have to hear about it any longer.
It's the ruling class unionists who still hanker for the colonial empire, & keeping Scotland & North Ireland under English rule. It's never been a major issue for the average person in England, hence why I think most would support the #Irish & the #Scots if given the chance.
