Do all Scots hate the English?

[19thagain]

I was in Paris and required a repair to my camera but all efforts to get the staff to understand
fell on deaf to my 'Scottish accent' ears. I overheard me being described as English and took
them to task, explaining I was Scottish!

After an apology all staff started speaking English and my camera was repaired free of charge!

What have you lot done to the poor French, never mind us Scots??

Have you seen the current state of the Irish economy?

Ours is bad but they are in the a similar crises to the one that Greece are in.

The current state of our economy ?? so this is a result of independance from a rebellion in 1916 & independence some time in 1918ish .. 94 years later .. seriously ??
So is half of europe mate , greece , spain ,portugal & alot others , this all happened because of the so called boom , when the banks loaned too much dosh & top businesmen blew it all .. when we gave billions to bond holders , they lost their gamble & the taxpayer picks up the bill because they were protected ..

If you think this has anything to do with Independance from GB i think you are mis informed or very very much mistaken ..

here's me with not a drop of scottish blood in my viens and a ruddy accent that no one wants.
All sterrotyping is irrelevant and misplaced.
I cheer whoever is playing the better football and can cheer both teams in the same breath.
Its just like Monty Python "whats the English ever done for us" shetch.

Well said. Been in England 30+ years and frankly they are the most tolerant people on earth -bar none.
Still love Ireland but happy where I am.
Always remember a statistic that there are more 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation Irish in England than Ireland. I bet its the same for the Scots - surely they should get a vote on independence.

Couldn't agree less, how on earth can you expect to have any degree of influence in determining the future of a country you don't live in?
