Rajong a magyar alkotmányért egy skót újság

Az új magyar alkotmány üdítő kivétel "a huszonegyedik század erkölcsi sivatagában", "egy örökségét és önállóságát visszakövetelő civilizált nemzet szellemi terméke" – veszi védelmébe a Scotland on Sunday címq lap szerkesztőségi kommentárban az alaptörvényt.
