    What makes a person Scottish, according to Scots

    "Scots believe birthplace and parentage count most – living in Scotland for ten years doesn't make you Scottish"



    That was from 2 years ago, when (& maybe still) your view was/is in the minority.

    Bunch of racists, waiting for Assgoo & co to start obsessing about stables again.

      You won't understand it so an example:
      One says black people are criminals and all should go to jail. Now that is racism, although by statistics high % of black people are convicted. Lying or exaggerating if you prefer makes you an offender. Got it?
      After your edit, WTF? Racism? Oh, alright, book me a couple of nights in the Presidential Suite @ Wormwood Scrubs. I will insist on the non-vegetarian breakfast menu though, there's a good chap..

      PS - you could at least learn to do some sentences and words in English, you illiterate peasant...
      His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...

              According to the views of 1039 people asked by a Tory run polling company.

              I can assure you the general feeling is that we're quite happy for people living here to call themselves Scots if that's what they want to do.

                  I haven't forgotten but things have changed massively.

                  Apart from Brexit, all of the things promised to us if we voted no has been reneged on. The biggest one is that the only way to stay in the EU was to vote no. They also said oil and gas was running out but in the 4 years since then they have made massive discoveries. It's all been widely reported so they can't try that next time :P

                  All the EU citizens that were warned to vote no otherwise they would be sent home because an Independent Scotland would be out of the EU will now vote yes to remain in the EU.

                  The independence referendum was used as a dry run for project fear and you now know what it's like with all the Brexit lies. People won't be fooled a second time.
