Here's a map of the UK. You can see where the border jumps up to keep Berwick Upon Tweed in England. http://www.maps-of-britain.co.uk/images/britain-politcal-map.jpg
I personally don't care which country the area is in. The only opinion that matters are the ones of the people who live there.

Gentlemen, it is time we took a step back and asked ourselves, "Why do we care?"

This is directly a result of Kosovo's independence.
Don't ask me why, though.

The evidence suggests we don't.
The evidence suggests we don't.
Speak for yourself, I think it's a big statement and says a lot about England.

He doesn't and the evidence suggests we don't.
If you want to make a big thing of this so be it...but trust me its not.

Personally, I think the town should try to be Australian, or maybe like Tahitian or something. Better yet, they should be Jamaican, and then they could smoke pot all day.

As I said, the only opinions that really matter are the ones of the people of Berick-upon-tweed. Just like Northern Ireland. I don't care if it's part of the UK or not, it's the people who live there that decide. Right now the majority want to be part of the UK, so it should stay that way.

I for one found the article to be poorly written. The lead is two paragraphs long, which goes against every fundamental point I learned in college level journalism classes.

I wish Midwestern towns in the U.S. has such awesome names. Most of ours are French or Native American. If Tweed was in my home town's name I'd die a happy man.
