All political party's and political movements attract complete roasters to some extent. Some political parties even have leaders who have described the Scots as "verminous". Some random arsehole holding anti English banners or indeed views is reprehensible. There are footballers being charged with bringing the game into disrepute for stuff they wrote as kids. Get the PM hauled up - he's a racist moron. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt, it’s the “acceptable” type of racism that the yessers peddle. Jim Sillars was in quoted in the papers last week expressing concern about Anglophobia within the SNP. I posted the article which was, of course, rubbished by the resident ScotchNats and Mr Sillars was 'othered' as they do with anyone who despises their squalid little movement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenneth840 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I believe in independence for Scotland. I freely admit to being anglophobic. This is why. Since the treaty of union, England has imposed itself upon my country. It has slowly been destroying my culture and language to such an extent that my language has been replaced in schools for many years by a foreign tongue. Scots or Gaelic was not taught at my school. Language is the basis of every nation and English has replaced Scots as the main language in Scotland, especially among the middle classes. One of the first tasks of a coloniser is to change the native language. In the 2014 independence referendum native Scots voted Yes to independence, it was EU and other nationals that mainly voted no. This is why the question and franchise for any future referendum on restoring Scotlands independence must be entirely made in Scotland and with UN supervision. There must be a change in question to make the union the contentious issue not independence which is normal. And a change in who can vote, not everybody as per the last referendum, there must be criteria to be met. Other countries do not allow foreign nationals to vote on constitutional issues, why does Scotland have to? Many people from ruk are settling in Scotland and are outbidding native Scots for homes. They choose to live here for the benefits that a devolved nation gives, but will never vote for independence. If this was the other way around and happening in England, do you really believe that it would be accepted? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenneth840 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 It is not my intention to fool anyone. I am only pointing out the fact that Scotland is still today an independent nation, that has Scots as its natives. The treaty of union was a declaration between 2 countries, the Scottish parliament was suspended and the English parliament in Westminster became the UK parliament. Which effectively made it the English parliament. Now that the Scottish parliament has been reconvened, it is simply a matter that our msps assert their authority as representatives of the Scottish people and declare independence. The SNP/Green alliance makes no difference to the election result in May, it was already a pro independence parliament. What are we going to do about it though? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re a die-hard UK nationalist, ergo you must worship at the altar of the Natter-in-chief and Grand Wizard of Grievance Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson. As you’ve so persistently maintained, Natterism is a cult of gonks, led by gonks; unless you’re a splitter, you must bow before the Supreme Red-White-and-Blue Gonk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawson Park Boy Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 It’s quite funny that the supporters of all the main political parties are totally disillusioned with the leadership of their own parties. That must be telling us something! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
