SCOTLAND'S CHANCE TO CHOOSE LANDMARK FOR (MINI) EUROPE
SNP MEP LAUNCHES POLL TO FIND SCOTLAND'S FAVOURITE LANDMARKS
SNP MEP Alyn Smith has launched a poll on his website www.alynsmith.eu giving the people of Scotland the chance to select their favourite Scottish sites to feature in Mini-Europe - the famous theme park in Brussels that displays reproductions of the most attractive monuments or landmarks throughout Europe.
Scotland is, at present, sadly missing any monument or landmarks from the park, but after some persuasion Alyn Smith has been granted the privilege by the park's management to hand-pick Scotland's finest landmarks for inclusion in the park alongside France's Eiffel Tower, Germany's Brandenburg Gate and Italy's Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Scotland has a wealth of historical and breathtaking sites, so Alyn is calling on help from fellow Scots to vote for their top six sites on this website's homepage Alyn will then put the top six forward and Scotland will then be sitting proudly with other European countries.
Smith said:
"This is good craic, and credit to the managers of Mini-Europe for taking on a constructive suggestion! I'm all for Scotland in Europe, so if we can make Scotland in Mini-Europe happen then maybe that's a first step!
"I was trying to choose which of Scotland's landmarks should feature, then could not choose we have so many! Running a competition on my website seemed the fairest way for people to either vote for my suggestions or suggest their own, and the top six will be suggested to Mini-Europe for them to make up as models and install in pride of place."
