Déclaration d'indépendance
Le 19 juin 2008, un retraité anglais, Stuart Hill, a proclamé l'indépendance de l'île vis-à-vis du Royaume-Uni, la renommant à cette occasion « Forvik »[1]. Son objectif est d'inciter les autres îles des Shetland à faire de même, afin d'en faire une simple dépendance de la Couronne comme le sont déjà l'île de Man ou les îles Anglo-Normandes[2]. Selon Stuart Hill, les Shetland n'ont jamais fait partie de l'Écosse et ne font, par conséquent, pas partie du Royaume-Uni[1].
