the only bad point off being SCOTTISH is we are conected to a bunch off poofters (english)
yep we wear kilts not just at weddings but at many an event.
Or is it quilts we wear (spot the muppet) and we are knowen for living in england. coz some****s gotta show thier wimmen a good time.
now here goes, it must be hard for the english, not being able to manage nout wi out the help of other countrys. not knowing what a real **** is or even having an identity now. coz there aint many real english left. its all other populations. Asia. Pakistan, Affrica etc etc.
all your country has going for it now is the royal family.
yer air stinks, the waters pure ****e. its not ment to run in lumps. and yous canny even speak yer aine language. yi aw try to talk like the coloured brotherhood. Mean wits that aboot?
anyhow yi aw pissed mi richt aff there.
no we aint fully independent, cos the english wouldnt survive wi out us. not just our oil but all the water booze and tourisim. contributes aswell. and we aint arrogant thats england. we will say to your face what we think. or tell you straight if yous annoy us. we dont run aboot telling others then deny it when pulled up.

It is widely accepted that Baird did bring together a series of existing technologies to become what we call television - however the key inventions and technological developments predate this 'invention' by at least thirty years.

Many would attribute Farnsworth, although he was only one of a number of other inventors that contributed to the evolution of television.

Oh, and Baird did most of his work when he lived in, ooh, let's guess. Yes, you guessed it, England

WELL SAID! Love it.

Just a little to add.

Why is it when you go abroad, where ever on the globe, that people ask you if you're English (and look at you like you're sh1te) but when you say you're Scottish you are welcomed with a warm smile and good hospitality.

Self explanitary I think!

bigsinky

same with the irish. it's the accents and the fact we know how to party

bigsinky

you notice how "the english" haven't replied to the above. they are still using babelfish "scotchland to english" translator. it will take them about an hour. come back then to bait them

They welcome the Scottish more because its guaranteed the Scottish will p1ss all their money away at the local bars.

A nice quiet night out in a typical Scottish town or city.

You've got an attitude problem. You seem to think you are above people somehow? Fortunately I know not all English are tossers like you, so I don't tar them all with the same brush. Although there is a serious amount of sh*te in this thread. People seriously need to get a grip of themselves. Scots in general have ***** and get things done, hence why they are responsible for so many innovations, inventions, and advances in engineering. Also, at many points, the British special forces have been largely made up from either Scottish or Irish soldiers. So it's not as if we are useless.

I am proud to call myself British, and many of my relatives are English and Welsh. I've also spent plenty of time in England and loved it. But I don't have anything but contempt for the people in this thread expressing views like yours.

Of course, when a Scotsman moves to England the average IQ of both countries increases.

Do you pay a higher rate of tax than people with an equivalent income in England?

The reason I ask is that Scots receive more than £1,600 more per head of public spending each year than the UK average.


A few quotes, as examples, from this article.

"Launching a new study, Professor Anton Muscatelli said it was "very difficult to justify" the Barnett formula, which determines the size of the block grant Westminster hands Scotland each year."


"In a further blow to the Scottish National Party's economic arguments for independence, the report also warns that "the volatility of oil prices means this would not deliver a stable revenue stream"."


"He said the Barnett formula's main advantages are simplicity and stability, but "on all other grounds" it falls short.

These include a perceived lack of autonomy, accountability and equity, with increasing political pressure from English taxpayers unhappy at Scots benefiting from policies that are unavailable south of the Border."


"As well as grants, the report examines handing the Scottish Parliament more tax-raising powers and allowing Holyrood to keep taxes raised in Scotland.

The latter two would give Scottish ministers more incentive to pursue policies that would stimulate economic growth, but it concludes that a "self-financing Scotland within the Union" would mean less public spending north of the Border.

Even taking into account North Sea oil tax revenue, Scotland's annual budget deficit stands at £2.7billion, the report states."


So why would you do that when Scotland is such a paradise?

And why would it not be better in Scotland than in England when you get a shedload more money spent on each person there?!

Seems to me that the English have every reason to be less than happy about things and the Scots have no grounds for whining.

Been cheking my family history recently and discovered some interesting facts. Aparenty most scots aren't scottish, but a mix of English in the south, Irish in the west, viking in the north and something else in the west. The only true Scots come a small number of tribes, such as the pikts.....oh and I think tartan is Irish? as are th pipes, just thought I'd share.
.....oh and I'm a mix of English, Irish, Spanish and German, by the way, so if any racists wanted me to go hom I'd have some rather nice options :-) ....well apart from the German lol. The sad thing is people, we're all European, like it or not... well unless you're from asian or African decent.
As for the original post I say let them be independent, we have plenty of coal and Scotlands costing us a fortune. Do you Scots realy think going it alone is agood idea? lots of big fish out there, mind you, you are part of the monster EU I guess.

typing this with a ps3 pad so sorry if its hard to read.
