I didn't look for anything, I referenced a good story I read about earlier, which is a positive thing and my brave comments were sincere, they are brave to stand up to the rest of the EU who are playing politics with vaccinations imo. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always been a brave bunch. Charging German tanks on horseback in defense of their country, facing the Russian hordes on their own when Britain and France refused to help, yet 145 Polish Pilots fought in the Battle of Britain etc etc. What many Scots don't know is that the King of Poland welcomed Scots emigrating to Poland in 1577 and gave them a district in Krakow, by the 1600's 30,000 Scots were living in Poland, so some of those Kowalski's and Kaminski's working here in Scotland could have Scottish blood. Have some fuckin respect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what you're talking about. What's this "preacher" patter about? What am I wrong about? I literally praised Poland for calling out other EU members for playing politics over vaccines and now I've had 2 or 3 posters with preconceived opinions and poor reading comprehension working themselves in to a tizzy over it. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Polish history between 1918-1945 is interesting because for every brave act of resistance or being the little guy there's wild attempts at expansionism and full-throated support for some of the worst goals of Nazism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EU? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_at_Krojanty It's largely a myth. Although the Poles still used a lot of horse mounted cavalry which in the face of automatic machine guns was pretty foolish, or brave depending on your taste. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence asking for the source, I'm aware of this myth and of course know the exaggerations about charging at tanks, of course horses were still used in some cases, more often for transport etc. I'm still bemused as to where the poster got the idea I was insulting or "disrespecting" Poland in the first place. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Thousands of Scots mercanaries went to fight for Sweden and the Protestant factions of the Thirty Years War. Large scale emigration to Poland is a myth of Sandy's imagination. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because you tend to fall neatly into a nice little silo as the Tory cheerleading, Unionist, Brexit loving Rangers fan. Thus, people make assumptions about your views based on that. Therefore your Brave bunch comment was seen by that poster at least as being sarcastic, since he assumed based on your other comments and views that your probably have the typical Gammon's view of "Johnny Foreigner" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd disagree with Tory Cheerleader and Brexit loving though but I can see why people would presume that when they mistakenly think my opinions are as polarised as some of theirs. I was reading the wiki you posted and saw this line ' As late as the 1990s, the myth was still being taught in history classes in some high schools" I'm glad I saw that because I'm sure we were told this at school, if I recall correctly it wasnt explored in depth but I definitely used to think this to an extent til I got a little bit older and voluntarily read up more on the subject. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paolo2143 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Make no mistake if Douglas Ross was to become FM of a Pro Union majority on 7 May then Indy will be scuppered and not just for few years. One of the first things he will do, lauded on by Westminster, is to change the electoral boundaries in Scotland to reduce any future chances of Pro Indy majority happening. David Davis and Westminster are not just gunning for FM or to bring down SNP, they are constructing a systematic attack to destabilize the Scottish Parliament and Democracy in order to weaken Devolution. This is all part of their power grab. Yesterday the UK Govt passed a Policing Bill that would have made Communist China applaud, we should al be worried. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the one hand I could see Keir Starmer liking the idea of pushing Scot Labour into a coalition: he'd probably see it as grown up politics, rising above factionalism for the good of dear old Blighty etc. Etc. However low my opinion of what is left of Scot Lab is though, I cannot see them going down that route. A formal coalition would drive away about 40% of what is left of their vote. Supply and confidence? Would they vote through a Tory budget? They never have an SNP one... Edited March 17, 2021 by renton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
