#6  What does that do to Scottish North Sea Oil claims? Is Shetland making a grab for it? Or helping English claims?

#4  Shetlands located in a weird place to be run from Scotland. Geographically and ethnically should be run from Britain and breakaway would screw Scotland's exclusive economic zone (fishing rights) north of Britain.

#3  Great for the Shetland Islands....hope they go through with it. On the other hand, there's also the old saying, "sometimes you get what you ask for".
