Saor Alba! - English hypocrisy

Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales, Gibraltar

England has occupied Gaelic Kingdom of Scotland 300 years ago. Since then, Scotland have less rights than a decent colony. In 1999. Scotland has been given right to own Constitution, but all major policies (taxation, economy, transport, broadcasting...) still remains in hands of a London Parlament.

List of other British colonies:

Northern Ireland
Wales
Chagos Islands
Saint Helena
Anguilla
Montserrat
Bermuda
Virgin Islands
Cayman Islands
Turks and Caicos
Isle of Man
Orkney
Cornwall
Gibraltar
Falkland Islands

[KingAntz1314]

not only are people confused about the union but i dont think people realise that it was the Scottish King who became the 1st king of both Scotland and England that suggested the union

[easy1355]

This is the most boring and pointless thing on youtube...

[chunkyricesushi]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahaha! Wot a load of shite

[ThatScottishGuy2010]

This was probably made by some clueless yank.

[JamesTilsley1]

just awful, and your historical knowledge is extreamly poor

[garethparr]

Of yeah and Cornwall is a part of England and Orkney is a part of Scotland; as is Shetland, even though you don't seem to see Shetland as a colony.

You lost Kosovo. Making bullshit about the UK isn't going to reverse this.

The relationship of Scotland & England as seen through misinformed Serbian eyes. I mean "British Saxon Occupational troups" lol!

Oh and funny colonies Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland are, having exactly the same rights in the UK as English do, with the additional bonus of internal self government (read up the West Lothian Question, silly Serb).

@Loegre Certainly true, but since then a lot has changed. Why oh why does Scotland want to now be free of the union? *cough* Subsidy Myth *cough* Block Grant via barnett *cough* massive over contribution *cough* underappreciated "cough" English indifference *cough* fear of 36% of GB landmass leaving UK *cough*.

@Aenglaland Don't suppose you've seen the program Dunkirk: The Forgotten Hereos? You know the one that describes the role of the 51st Highland Division during the evacuation. The poor sods weren't even lucky enough to be part of the 100,000 Brit troops evacuated from ports like Le Harve or Brest. No, they were the ones fighting 60 miles south of Dunkirk so everyone else could escape. Yet you dare insult their memory with your bigoted bile?? You really should be ashamed of yourself!!

[thistlewarrior]

@Aenglaland I know I said the discussion was over but hang on a sec. Are you completely thick or what?

Yes I do claim the 51st had victory in Africa. Along with many other British troops. Are you saying the 51st weren't in Africa now?

Are you suggesting I think the Scots won the war themselves? LOL! Nah, we like to leave that kind of thing up to facist thugs like you.

Now stop shiting into your hand and throwing it but more importantly fuck off. I feel dirty just conversing with you.

[thistlewarrior]

@Aenglaland I see you quickly sidestepped the issue of the proportion of Scots lives lost and the references regarding them. So you see, unlike you, I can back up my claims and not just pluck facts from thin air.

Your morally repugnant bile against almost everyone who is not English is not something I ever wish to encounter again. I can only hope that one day you will have the realisation that life is too short for the bitterness. I am done with you. This discussion is now over.
