If devolution is a double-edged sword, from where I sit I can only see the liabilities; the benefits are starting to look like a pipe dream. We have devolved everything undesirable, from corruption to over inflated egos and the individualism that goes with it. I do not mean to disparage devolution.
On the contrary, I have high hopes for the parity it is meant to bring to our economic uniformity as a country. And how can I not? As the gap between the haves and the have-nots continues to grow, it is foolhardy to think that high gates will be enough to keep us safe when our neighbours are languishing in abject poverty on the other side of the even higher fence.
