The current population of Scotland is just over five million. \n\nA census takes place every ten years - the year that ends with the number 'one'. There was a census in 1971, 1981, 1991 and so on. \n\nOne of the purposes of the census is to help plan services and provision for elderly people. From the information collected in the census, the government can try to plan future service provision.

The lower court in Scotland is the Sheriff Court. Each Sheriffdom (of which there are six) has a Sheriff Principal. There are 49 Sheriff Courts within the Sheriffdoms, with a judge, known as a Sheriff.\n\nThere are 3 legal areas within a Sheriff Court: Civil, Criminal and Commissary. The civil jurisdiction, though inferior, is extensive and the majority of civil cases raised in Scotland are taken in the Sheriff Court. There is an appeal from Sheriff to Sheriff Principal and to the Inner House of the Court of Session. An appeal may be taken to the Inner House directly. From the Inner House further appeal may be taken to the House of Lords. In criminal matters the Sheriff also has a wide jurisdiction in relation to most crimes; only those of greatest gravity lie outwith the Sheriff's jurisdiction. There is no appeal from Sheriff to Sheriff Principal in criminal cases, the appeal lies to the court of criminal appeal.\n\nThe superior court in Scotland is the Court of Session formed by the Inner House (comprising the first and second divisions) and the Outer House (where only single judges or Lords of Session also styled Senators of the College of Justice sit). The principal judge is the Lord President, who leads the first division, whereas the Lord Justice Clerk leads the second division. The court sits only at Parliament House in Edinburgh.\n\nThe highest civil appellate court is the House of Lords which sits in Westminster. The judges who sit in the House are the Lord Chancellor, the Lords of Appeal in Ordinary, and those peers who hold or have held high judicial office. The House of Lords has an appellate jurisdiction from Scottish courts in civil matters only; it has no Scottish criminal jurisdiction.

Many Scots would like an independent Scottish republic, or perhaps kingdom, as was the case before the destruction of the Scottish Parliament around 1700 (although the crowns were united in 1603, with the accession of James I).  There was a referendum which failed realted to this a few years back.  Others are content to stay part of the UK.  The Scottish Parliament HAS been reconstituted in the last couple of years for "local" issues.  There is a concern that if Scotland were to become independent, it would immediately become a third world country, instead of enjoying whatever benefits there may be as a member of the UK.

The Parliament of Westminister (the UK parliament) is the mother of parliaments, in that they originated what a modern parliament is.\n\nBack benchers of the party in power have been known to join a vote of no-confidence and send the PM to an election.\n\nCoalition goverments can be unstable. If one partner leaves, a confidence motion may be scheduled.

NCMP seats go to the top opposition losers who obtained more than 15% of the votes in their respective constituencies during an election. But in actual fact, depending on the number of elected opposition member, the total number of elected opposition member plus the nominated opposition MP should not be more than three. It’s believed that if we only have one opposition member in the parliament, he or she will not be able to check on the PAP effectively. So we are told that 3 is the ideal number.
