What those who sympathise with Separatism should ask is: how will the individual be better off? Individual emigration within (or from) a Union is often advanced as an indication of Unionist neglect of of the separating region. But it generally continues after Separation. Regions differ, for many reasons, in what they can offer the Individual within the circumstances of a particular period. Individuals like to be free to move: that freedom is one of the most important ways of developing oneself. It is often hard to say to what extent a man has been compelled to leave by lack of opportunity at home, or attracted to leave by greater opportunity elsewhere. We all, or almost all, leave our homes at some stage of our development: some go further than others. It has been suggested that Enterprise leaves, Resentment stays at home. However that may be, the Emigrant, so far as Separatists are concerned, generally ceases to exist as a voter.
