Didn't you read what he said over the past series of posts? I'm a lefty Scots nationalist that has to use copy paste rather than actual knowledge. What do you expect? 😛

you are a lefty nationalist maybe - but i didnt say you copy-paste.
I engaged with everything you said.
that copy-paste comment was directed to dontcostyanuffin.

'sassenach' IS a derogatry term.
I dont really care, but it is. come on, you know that. ?

I will chat about the other 2 points you made later.
1. dealt with. 4. you might be right, but you phrase it in a very ... curious.... way
 
who could feel derogated by a scot?

I can't honestly be bothered to look back over how ever many pages to check the copy/paste thing. It's not that important.

I'm a native Scots Gaelic speaker. I speak it daily with friends and family but I'm also fluent in English. Now as a native speaker of Gaidhlig I can assure you that the words 'sasainn' and 'sasannach' are used regularly to talk about England and English people without any malicious intent whatsoever. Much the same as you might say 'Scotland' and 'Scottish' in the same way. Neither are used as a derogatory term, they're just plain language (unlike 'scotch'). If you still doubt me then g00gle learngaelic dictionary and look them up for yourself. Don't use g00gle translate because it mangles most languages. You might have to use the non-slenderised version of sasainn which is sasann this is simply Gaidhlig grammar.

There's nothing that odd about the way I phrased the intent towards England post independence at all. We don't aim to close borders and require complex visas, we do want to rejoin the EU and if that means that *England* wants to impose its own border controls then meh. As for the whole Brexit fiasco I stand by what I said. Farage and Bojo the clown both used the whole sorry sage to make piles of cash by playing the general public. So did grease-fog and most of the other prominent tories. Lie after lie after sorry lie.

Scotland saw right through that and returned a rock solid country wide remain vote. That alone should tell you enough about how we view the rest of the world.

As for economic independence, don't believe everything that the 'keep them at all costs' brigade say. You need us far more than we need you and that shows every time we want another referendum. We've got the assets and resources to stand on our own.
 
Oh and yes, I'm an SNP voter. I want independence from the UK. That makes me a nationalist and I'm good with that. I believe in it to the extent that I did not apply for Cambridge to do my degrees as my mum wanted me to do, I applied to a Scottish university.

I also passionately believe in social justice and compassion. The so called left in England are indistinguishable from the right and both, like the current US administration, pursue the politics of petty vindictiveness. That's probably another good reason for wanting independence. Scotland is a modern progressive country and long may it remain so.
 
I’d also say that when Scots are referred to as “sweaty socks” (jocks) they don’t find it malicious because 97% of them aren’t snowflakes.
 
I suddenly feel slurred against. She is attacking my innocent country and calling me bad words. Someone lock her up please. I'm scared.

i agree with you in many ways, but i wish scotland would eff off and carry on being the drug and alcohol capital of Europe.
we do not want you anymore.
carry on injecting alchohol, and drinking heroin. I dont care.
also you dont like Irn Bru?
have fun with the deep fried mars bars.
scottish cuisine


2. = economically. Westminster gives more money to scotland, then it recieves in taxes.
so, economically, nah, independence wont work - unless you want to depend on handouts from Europe instead?

3. = if you know anything about policital voting trends (I hope you do), then you should know that England has a very pronounced tendency to vote Conservative. and Wales and Scotland tend to vote Labour. north england mostly left, but overall england is conservative.


2 and 3 are basic easily verifiable facts.
