It's easier said than done though. I thought I was past all that, but I'll admit that this World Cup has shown me that I've got a bit to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 In fairness, it's not so much the English football team as the reaction of the "British" media and then of course the antics of the English fans rampaging around the country, attacking Dogs, Furniture stores and Emergency vehicles etc (you couldn't make it up). Like it or not, we ARE different to them and surely any decent person wouldn't want to be associated with them. I also believe that things have changed dramatically over the past few months from a political perspective, mundell and his masters have made it obundantly clear that Scotland is only a region within England and will always be treated as such, even though they paid us lip service with a toothless parliament. Basically if we want change and we want to prosper as a nation, then setting ourselves free from London is the only plausible way............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BBC caters for the far superior population in the UK ie the English. Only way this will ever change is through devolved media(never happen) or independence. Suck it up I'm afraid..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't vote for it and I'm NOT British. Using the same argument, everyone in the UK is a tory because they had a majority in the UK election or everyone in Scotland is a Nationalist as they had the majority in Scotland. Sorry, but that's just nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArabianKnight Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I'm in the Yes voting camp and couldn't give two shits if they won. Tbh The media reaction would be unbearable but knowing the joy a world cup win would give my English friends would make it slightly less unbearable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that is going to move this either way is an actual campaign. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
