Devolution or Dissolution? In four weeks' time, voters in Scotland and Wales will decide by separate referenda whether to accept or reject government proposals for devolving powers to Assemblies in Edinburgh and Cardiff. If devolution is accepted, it will be one of the biggest constitutional changes in 250 years. What are the wider implications for Britain as a whole? Will it mean better government or just add another layer of bureaucracy? Will there be an English backlash? Could it lead to federalism and even to the eventual break-up of the United Kingdom?
