I'm English born to Scottish parents and hated going on holiday to visit family in Scotland...... my English accent was a magnet for every single idiot with a grudge........ there is a kind of victim culture that puts the blame for everything that happens to each and every one of them at the feet of the English....... I've been beaten spat on and verbally abused so many times as a kid it became a part of the holiday. I must admit i owe the fact that i can look after myself to the lessons in " a good kickin" I got on holiday........ Years later I joined the royal navy and served on a type 21 frigate built on the Clyde...... the visit to Glasgow during a small refit was like a stroll down memory lane........ abuse based purely on the accent you happen to have....... Having said that I would hate to see Scotland leave the UK. If it ever did happen it would be a total disaster . Industries with government contracts like ship building may very well loose contracts in favour of English or Irish ship yards, the military bases might have to relocate to England and the nuclear submarines to Plymouth RAF may have to stay for mutual safety and NATO commitments, but the army regiments would have to disband and leave......... investment in Scottish industry could be affected when Westminster is not involved in any backup capability....... Scotland is a pretty big country to run with only+/- 5 million people and no major industries to support the GDP....... not even the gas and oilfields can help them as production is getting more difficult and expensive whilst the world is looking for renewable energy............ If they try to join the EU there will have to be a hard border and different passports and different money and all financial support from Westminster would have to stop...... all the rules on business and fishing and farming and trade in general would have to change........... Scotland and the rest of the UK would be a weaker place if they left.......... perhaps the kids should not be taught to hate the English just because they are English
I'm from Scotland, went to England naïvely thinking it would be ok, I was 16, my name suddenly turned to ''Jock'' punched, spat at, ridiculed, I was shown my place. Having said that I would not like to see Scotland leave the UK, it would be a disaster for the English, Welsh and Irish, not just that up to 70% of the SAS are Scottish so that leaves the rest of the UK foreign military and political agenda in tatters, but unlike you you have inferred and where you are wrong, the wealth from oil and gas fields just opened plus the obvious wind and sea renewables and then the Hydro reopening in Scottish mountains would see Scotland become way more wealthy then Norway with the English reliant on Scottish renewables like the Shetland farms that are being piped directly down to England!. Exports from the uk include Gems and precious metals (Scotland due to its geological topography is abundant in these) Machinery including computers (Scotland hosts proud abundance innovation of Machinery, and a large above population average for the Gaming industry) Mineral fuels including oil ( we got pretty much all the UKs in the north so lol nuff said) (ps finance always sets up across the road from oil historically so a lot of the London post code finance institutes would put there post code in Scotland (you getting the picture yet?).......) Vehicles (fore front of pioneering work on biofuel engines) Pharmaceuticals (Scotland's labs are punching way above the population average on laboratory science and discovery) Electrical machinery and equipment (renewables nuff said) Optical, technical, and medical apparatus ( Scotland has always punched way above the population average for innovation in all these fields) Aircraft and spacecraft ( BEA systems and Trident are based in Scotland and now space launch sites are based here too...) and that's without talking about Tourism, Whisky, and the humble haggis that can be seen running round the hills at night!. There is an English arrogance that believes blindly that nobody can do without them!, they would swear blindly that the smaller nations are somehow leaching, yet the opposite is true, it is this denial that creates a willingness for the other nations to want to leave, the proof being in the reality of having left.
Contrary to what you might believe or have experienced in the past, Scotland is hardly like that anymore. Current day Scotland couldn't give a shit where you are from provided you're a nice person and have no vested selfish interest in the lands of this country. We're a country pretty hard wired on preservation and conservation not hatred. Scotland leaving the UK had very little to do with this so called 'Hated of the English' that is only carried on by drunk football hooligans and people carrying a grudge from before they were born. (The same can also be said for both places, I've had countless experiences with English people shaming me for my Scottish accent. Most of the world bloody shames this country for the way we talk.) The reason for leaving the UK was solely driven by a want for Scotlands future to be in the hands of a Scottish democracy and driven by the Scottish people. Nothing to do with the English common man. Heres an analogy for your rude assumptions: If I went to america on holiday and happened to bump into members of the KKK in a bar, by your logic I should assume everyone in America is a racist bigot that wishes harm upon specific races. However in the real world it doesn't work like that. Your experiences shape your opinions, I get it. If I had to guess i'd say it's like 15% of Scotland that is xenophobic. The rest don't care. It's very cheap to paint an entire people's character from a number of experiences you've had personally. My guess is you've just been unlucky and met the few bigots that actually are like that. Hopefully your opinion changes the more people you meet. If not, atleast know that I dont hate you just because you're english, thats proposterous.
That Scottish Guy so basically you are inventing discriminatory belief systems against people who say they are british to further your own belief that being Scottish makes you superior to us? Sounds a bit like what the nazis did against the Jews? So as a british federalist and social democrat what have I become that I should be ashamed of?
@@roosterbooster6238 Nothing superior in being Scottish, and perhaps as a "british federalist and social democrat" you would know that, but no you had to use the race card to support your claim. Tut tut. "what have I become that I should be ashamed of?" using what the nazis did against the Jews, to explain away Scots desire to have Independence. As for you're own shame, something tells me that after using those comments, I don't think you would ever be ashamed, or would you?

I give credit to them for showing her when all comedy shows have people that get uptight and dont laugh but most wont show these people, they only show the ones that laugh, or for ethnic jokes they try to find someone of that ethnicity having a chuckle so everyone feels comfortable.

What? If u did that,theyre be no decent footballers in England! Man.Utd. are a bunch of overpaid under acieverers,and London and Brummie clubs are useless Re
I'm a proud Englishman and I love the Scots. The Scots should decide for themselves to stay in the UK or go independent. I wish them the very best of luck what ever they decide to do.
We've already decided in 2014, it's just that some extremist Nationalists can't accept it. The SNP may be the governing party in Scotland, but the majority want to remain part of the UK.
@@joemorton9200 There's also the fact that the 2014 vote may not be totally legitimate, not in that it was rigged or votes weren't counted but. there was initially supposed to be 3 options, Stay in the UK, Leave, or Stay with more autonomy. the Tories thinking the referendum wouldn't matter just made it the first 2, but because the polls were split 50/50 a few days before the actual vote, the tories said that stay would come with those increased powers, this confused a lot of voters and MAY have lead to a lot more support for no. there's also the fact that the last one was 8 years ago and it's a very different place today. there's many thousands of people like myself that were too young to vote in 2014 (I was 13 at the time, voting age is 16 here) and many older people that did vote in 2014 that aren't alive anymore, interestingly, the old are overwhemlingly in favour of staying, and the young the opposite, couple that with the EU thing which yes was quite unpopular here. and it's not at all crazy to believe we'd leave. The Tory government of the past 12 years has been a complete embarrasment to the nation on the internal and international stage and Scots as much as anyone are fucking sick of it, most people want to leave not to not be in the UK, but to be free from the twats in Westminster. whatever we do I hope we do it soon cause as much as I think independce is important for us moving forward and the SNP are the only route to that. I am generally pretty disgusted with them as a party and want them gone ASAP.
@@danielmacpherson8487 If the people want it they should get it but I’m not so sure now is the best time. The financial proposals look like they are up in the air which would be sorely felt at the moment. Also it’s not like you can just leave and join the EU, there’s a transition period (lasting a good couple of years if not more) which given the state of the world right now would be agony.

Banky well the twats never though, the ‘English electorate’ had absolutely nothing to do with the UK joining the EU. Nobody got a vote.

The Planet Magrathea II why do so many of you seem to want independence, independence which you will then use to align yourself with the EU and be (entirely) ruled by them? Why, I genuinely don’t understand? You effectively want to procure independence, in order to have it taken by somebody else instead... If it’s a case of well, someone’s gonna do better than the other, then I understand but sorry I think going with the EU is anchoring yourself to a sinking ship, or whatever the term is.
From an Aus Scotsman Manxy - make sure he doesn't go down the sellout road like our disgraceful and embarrassment of a comedian known as Jim fuckwit Jefferies
@@Nathan-yk5km I think for a lot of Scots, independence isn't about being all on our own. It's about having our parliament represent us to it's fullest extent. A large amount of Scots feel "left out" by Westminster. But we are also, en masse, pro Europe. A lot of rural Scotland benefits from EU grants and projects, and we have a large European immigrant population which works hard and brings their ethics and culture along with them. An Independent Scotland that is part of the EU would mean that local issues are wholly settled by the Scottish Government, which we vote for, and we would still be part of the free trade, movement and cooperation that the EU provides. The idea that we are held ransom by Brussels (or indeed the Bundestag as someone else said) I think is a gross exaggeration, perhaps fuelled by anti-Europe sentiment. For a lot of Scottish people, being part of Europe and sharing in culture, experience and humanity is a desperately important thing, more so than being part of the UK. Both referenda I think are proof of that. Hence the call for a 2nd independence referendum. These, by the way, are not necessarily my views, but more of a summary of what I think I see from my fellow countrymen on a daily basis. It's fair to say, that the promise that David Cameron made to the people of Scotland in 2014; our only way to maintain our EU membership was to remain as part of the UK (at that point the EU basically said Scotland being a member as an independent country was nigh on impossible) and then his referendum on the subject which is now seemingly going to strip the people of Scotland of that promise, has left a lot of Scottish people feeling betrayed and abandoned. And I think correctly so. As it stands, I'm anti-indepenence at the moment, as I was in 2014, but I'm sat on an exceptionally thin knife edge on the subject.
@BreatheScotland - "Scotland gets additional funds on top of it's own taxes that it raises" absolute lie, get your facts right, Scotland does not have the power to raise its own taxes! All tax revenue raised in Scotland goes to Wasteminster.

@@mpggv8368 1) You replied to the wrong comment. 2) Believe it or not, Brexit is the lesser of two evils. I don't know if you've noticed, but the EU is an unsustainable economic mess that is surviving on life support, and the longer its kept alive, the more catastrophic its demise will be. The whole project is controlled by unelected eurocrats in Brussels, slapping regulation after regulation on countries with little regard what effect it will have on them, and you can ask Greece, Spain and other poorer countries what a mess the EU have been. No one thought Brexit isn't going to be messy, any divorce is. But the sooner it gets done, the better for the UK in the long run. Future generations will look back at brexit like they look back on churchil:. It might not have been the most popular choice to make, but it was the best choice one could make between two bad options.

I find it interesting that, according to public records, when things looked difficult for the Allies in WW2, Scottish nationalists would get busy seeking an understanding in their favour from the Nazis via their consul in Dublin. It fascinates me that today's SNP prefer to be run by the Franco-German led EU than continued alliance with the rest of the UK. But maybe old history can point us in the direction that might help explain this sort of political thinking.

@@legandrydirk Bravely spoken! Allow me to draw your attention to the following report in the Daily Telegraph dated 09/05/2001 under the title "Scots 'tried to set up Nazi alliance' ". This opens with these two paragraphs - "Scottish nationalists attempted to set up a German-Scottish alliance against England during the Second World War, according to MI6 files released today to the Public Record Office at Kew. They offered to proclaim an independent pro-German invasion of Scotland in the event of a Nazi invasion of England. In return, they asked that Germany stop bombing Scotland and give captured Scottish conscripts special treatment." The article goes on to describe in detail what was going on and finishes with the wry comment that "The files do not make clear if the contacts were ever followed up.", but mentions that MI5 "was already investigating the Scottish nationalists."
@@songsmith31a Tabloid newspaper bullshit and anti Scottish propaganda with a referendum coming up None of this ever happened or else it would tell you the names of who was executed Even during Levingston there was people tried during a war,same procedure would have happened here Imagine how better it would be if you actually used your brain?
@@legandrydirk I fail to see what today's calls for a referendum have to do with a broadsheet newspaper report of twenty years ago but passing that irrelevance by, the next paragraph states: "The proposals were made via the German legation in Dublin and came in the middle of a campaign by Winston Churchill to force the Irish government to stop the Germans using the legation as a centre for espionage and subversion." Mention is made of the unease of the German minister in Dublin, Edward Hempel, that an alliance with Scottish nationalists might give the British an excuse to have him expelled told Berlin that he "obviously could not have anything to do with the business in any shape or form." And there is more, but I think that anyone with a less prejudiced and closed mind will have already got the gist of what was deciphered by British code-breakers between 1940 and 1943 in messages sent to Berlin. It was the view of the Intelligence services that passed the information to government that "though individual members are mischievous and potentially dangerous, the organisation, (which called itself "The Scottish Independence Movement") albeit full of sound and fury, is of little consequence." No doubt the Public Record Office can verify all of this if fact and history matter to an informed brain.

Poor England. With Scotland's departure just a matter of when, and with Wales getting itchy feet not to mention Ireland moving closer to reunification, England - after isolating itself from Europe - is now on course to be isolated within what was once the United Kingdom. The English will realise that all their country has is faded glory. Vera Lynn, Blitz spirit, Churchill. That's where it all ended. Beyond that, nothing. No waters, no resources, no real exports. Money made in London stays in London (or swims to offshore accounts). Its establishment knows this hence the dirty tricks and propaganda desperately deployed to stop Scotland, and eventually the rest, leaving. RIP England.
The question is no longer if Scotland will leave the UK, the question is when Scotland will leave the UK? Come the imminent new Scottish independence referendum, I will vote in favour of Scotland leaving the UK. This will make me very, deeply sad in many respects, but no matter, it is the way I will vote. Personally I can no longer find any justification or see any benefit in living under the control of an expensively educated, and over privileged elite band of idiots. A nostalgic quango of halfwits who select certain parts of history to subvert, subdue, modify or exaggerate inorder to suit their narrow minded and overinflated image of themselves. A group of charlatans that constantly repeat factoids that are eagerly amplified in the press and media, until they are mistakenly accepted as fact. Scotland leaving the UK can only serve as a source of motivation to the Indy curious people of Wales. The Yes movement in Wales has grown to such an extent over the last few years, that the same question once asked of Scotland are now being asked of Wales. Not if Wales will leave the UK, but when will Wales leave the UK? Weep for poor England. No seriously, weep for poor England. There's a disaster capitalist storm coming England's way. Her public services such as the NHS, and her assets are soon to be colonized and controlled by the USA. A country led by a man who ironically given the anti Celtic/European attitudes held by many of the the xenophobes in little England, comes from Scottish/German parentage. You couldn't make this stuff up.
Scotland doesn’t want to leave. There’s been 1 I think 2 votes for Scottish independence and each time they’ve voted to stay, the reason why people think they want to leave is because no one campaigns to stay apart of the UK because they’re already apart of the Uk
Well surely you should stop returning SNP MPs ! They are just an annoying disruption at Westminster, objecting to everything and contributing nothing to the UK as a whole.
Finstaa. Good point. The Scottish voted to STAY in The U .K. The reason some people think they want to leave is because the minority who want to leave are much more vocal, and on television more.
@A S Teer True, and the Scottish people exercised their right to determine their future by voting to STAY in The U.K. Self-determination and independence are not the same thing here.
Finstaa or is it because we’ll take our shipbuilding industry,lucrative MOD contracts and benefits back down south and leave you worse off than you already are 😂😂 The Majority of Northern Irish are no dozers either as the republicans hate the monarchy but have no problems spending money with the queens head on it come giro day.
It's not Liverpool they have to take...it's Newcastle. The obvious border will be Hadrian's Wall which finishes at Wallsend...funnily enough. So that means part of Newcastle will be in Scotland or we let them have everything north of the Tyne around Newcastle. Close the motorways at the wall in favour of border checks along the wall possibly at the modified forts.

@@probinson4383 You miss entirely, the whole purpose of Nigel Farage's intentions. Getting into Parliament, was merely a means to an end---destroying the opposition to Brexit. As a democratically elected member of the E.U parliament (the only example in the whole circus) he destroyed all opposition to his arguments, and realised his ambition, and forced the Tory's and other's, into accepting the referendum. The rest is history. On this basis alone, he is THE most successful politician in modern history.
Maybe they want mass immigration, like England had for decades due to being part of the EU? ;) There's going to be so much "cultural enrichment" in Scotland if they rejoin the EU... Edinburgh can be the new London, where native white Scots will be a minority and every other person speaks with a foreign accent, just like in London. If that's what the Scots want, well go ahead then.

Very funny routine that buys in nicely to comfy centuries old misconceptions. It’s very good of the English to desperately hold on to Scotland so they can subsidise it with their hard earned cash.

I'm English born to Scottish parents and hated going on holiday to visit family in Scotland...... my English accent was a magnet for every single idiot with a grudge........ there is a kind of victim culture that puts the blame for everything that happens to each and every one of them at the feet of the English....... I've been beaten spat on and verbally abused so many times as a kid it became a part of the holiday.
I must admit i owe the fact that i can look after myself to the lessons in " a good kickin" I got on holiday........
Years later I joined the royal navy and served on a type 21 frigate built on the Clyde...... the visit to Glasgow during a small refit was like a stroll down memory lane........ abuse based purely on the accent you happen to have.......
Having said that I would hate to see Scotland leave the UK.
If it ever did happen it would be a total disaster . Industries with government contracts like ship building may very well loose contracts in favour of English or Irish ship yards, the military bases might have to relocate to England and the nuclear submarines to Plymouth RAF may have to stay for mutual safety and NATO commitments, but the army regiments would have to disband and leave......... investment in Scottish industry could be affected when Westminster is not involved in any backup capability....... Scotland is a pretty big country to run with only+/- 5 million people and no major industries to support the GDP....... not even the gas and oilfields can help them as production is getting more difficult and expensive whilst the world is looking for renewable energy............
If they try to join the EU there will have to be a hard border and different passports and different money and all financial support from Westminster would have to stop...... all the rules on business and fishing and farming and trade in general would have to change........... Scotland and the rest of the UK would be a weaker place if they left.......... perhaps the kids should not be taught to hate the English just because they are English
you dont get it never will .. end of
That's similar to my experience of the place. Never known anywhere so full of hatred. I was really disappointed when they voted to stay.
I'm from the English Midlands and have a good mate from East Kilbride. He invited me up for Hogmanay. Did he think I had a death wish or something.
I'm from Scotland, went to England naïvely thinking it would be ok, I was 16, my name suddenly turned to ''Jock'' punched, spat at, ridiculed, I was shown my place.
Having said that I would not like to see Scotland leave the UK, it would be a disaster for the English, Welsh and Irish, not just that up to 70% of the SAS are Scottish so that leaves the rest of the UK foreign military and political agenda in tatters, but unlike you you have inferred and where you are wrong, the wealth from oil and gas fields just opened plus the obvious wind and sea renewables and then the Hydro reopening in Scottish mountains would see Scotland become way more wealthy then Norway with the English reliant on Scottish renewables like the Shetland farms that are being piped directly down to England!.
Exports from the uk include
Gems and precious metals (Scotland due to its geological topography is abundant in these)
Machinery including computers (Scotland hosts proud abundance innovation of Machinery, and a large above population average for the Gaming industry)
Mineral fuels including oil ( we got pretty much all the UKs in the north so lol nuff said) (ps finance always sets up across the road from oil historically so a lot of the London post code finance institutes would put there post code in Scotland (you getting the picture yet?).......)
Vehicles (fore front of pioneering work on biofuel engines)
Pharmaceuticals (Scotland's labs are punching way above the population average on laboratory science and discovery)
Electrical machinery and equipment (renewables nuff said)
Optical, technical, and medical apparatus ( Scotland has always punched way above the population average for innovation in all these fields)
Aircraft and spacecraft ( BEA systems and Trident are based in Scotland and now space launch sites are based here too...)
and that's without talking about Tourism, Whisky, and the humble haggis that can be seen running round the hills at night!.
There is an English arrogance that believes blindly that nobody can do without them!, they would swear blindly that the smaller nations are somehow leaching, yet the opposite is true, it is this denial that creates a willingness for the other nations to want to leave, the proof being in the reality of having left.
Contrary to what you might believe or have experienced in the past, Scotland is hardly like that anymore.
Current day Scotland couldn't give a shit where you are from provided you're a nice person and have no vested selfish interest in the lands of this country. We're a country pretty hard wired on preservation and conservation not hatred.
Scotland leaving the UK had very little to do with this so called 'Hated of the English' that is only carried on by drunk football hooligans and people carrying a grudge from before they were born. (The same can also be said for both places, I've had countless experiences with English people shaming me for my Scottish accent. Most of the world bloody shames this country for the way we talk.)
The reason for leaving the UK was solely driven by a want for Scotlands future to be in the hands of a Scottish democracy and driven by the Scottish people. Nothing to do with the English common man.
Heres an analogy for your rude assumptions:
If I went to america on holiday and happened to bump into members of the KKK in a bar, by your logic I should assume everyone in America is a racist bigot that wishes harm upon specific races. However in the real world it doesn't work like that. Your experiences shape your opinions, I get it. If I had to guess i'd say it's like 15% of Scotland that is xenophobic. The rest don't care. It's very cheap to paint an entire people's character from a number of experiences you've had personally. My guess is you've just been unlucky and met the few bigots that actually are like that. Hopefully your opinion changes the more people you meet. If not, atleast know that I dont hate you just because you're english, thats proposterous.
Its somehow ironic that its ok to be a nationalist if you're scottish but not if you're english....

@@donmacleod.7080 At the moment the polls suggest otherwise, a majority wanted to remain in the EU and that could've been the deal breaker
@@joemorton9200 There's also the fact that the 2014 vote may not be totally legitimate, not in that it was rigged or votes weren't counted but. there was initially supposed to be 3 options, Stay in the UK, Leave, or Stay with more autonomy. the Tories thinking the referendum wouldn't matter just made it the first 2, but because the polls were split 50/50 a few days before the actual vote, the tories said that stay would come with those increased powers, this confused a lot of voters and MAY have lead to a lot more support for no.
there's also the fact that the last one was 8 years ago and it's a very different place today. there's many thousands of people like myself that were too young to vote in 2014 (I was 13 at the time, voting age is 16 here) and many older people that did vote in 2014 that aren't alive anymore, interestingly, the old are overwhemlingly in favour of staying, and the young the opposite, couple that with the EU thing which yes was quite unpopular here. and it's not at all crazy to believe we'd leave. The Tory government of the past 12 years has been a complete embarrasment to the nation on the internal and international stage and Scots as much as anyone are fucking sick of it, most people want to leave not to not be in the UK, but to be free from the twats in Westminster. whatever we do I hope we do it soon cause as much as I think independce is important for us moving forward and the SNP are the only route to that.

@@Nathan-yk5km I think for a lot of Scots, independence isn't about being all on our own. It's about having our parliament represent us to it's fullest extent. A large amount of Scots feel "left out" by Westminster. But we are also, en masse, pro Europe. A lot of rural Scotland benefits from EU grants and projects, and we have a large European immigrant population which works hard and brings their ethics and culture along with them. An Independent Scotland that is part of the EU would mean that local issues are wholly settled by the Scottish Government, which we vote for, and we would still be part of the free trade, movement and cooperation that the EU provides. The idea that we are held ransom by Brussels (or indeed the Bundestag as someone else said) I think is a gross exaggeration, perhaps fuelled by anti-Europe sentiment. For a lot of Scottish people, being part of Europe and sharing in culture, experience and humanity is a desperately important thing, more so than being part of the UK. Both referenda I think are proof of that. Hence the call for a 2nd independence referendum. These, by the way, are not necessarily my views, but more of a summary of what I think I see from my fellow countrymen on a daily basis. It's fair to say, that the promise that David Cameron made to the people of Scotland in 2014; our only way to maintain our EU membership was to remain as part of the UK (at that point the EU basically said Scotland being a member as an independent country was nigh on impossible) and then his referendum on the subject which is now seemingly going to strip the people of Scotland of that promise, has left a lot of Scottish people feeling betrayed and abandoned. And I think correctly so. As it stands, I'm anti-indepenence at the moment, as I was in 2014, but I'm sat on an exceptionally thin knife edge on the subject.

1) You replied to the wrong comment.
2) Believe it or not, Brexit is the lesser of two evils. I don't know if you've noticed, but the EU is an unsustainable economic mess that is surviving on life support, and the longer its kept alive, the more catastrophic its demise will be. The whole project is controlled by unelected eurocrats in Brussels, slapping regulation after regulation on countries with little regard what effect it will have on them, and you can ask Greece, Spain and other poorer countries what a mess the EU have been. No one thought Brexit isn't going to be messy, any divorce is. But the sooner it gets done, the better for the UK in the long run. Future generations will look back at brexit like they look back on churchil:. It might not have been the most popular choice to make, but it was the best choice one could make between two bad options.

I find it interesting that, according to public records, when things looked difficult for the Allies in WW2, Scottish
nationalists would get busy seeking an understanding in their favour from the Nazis via their consul in Dublin.
It fascinates me that today's SNP prefer to be run by the Franco-German led EU than continued alliance with the rest
of the UK. But maybe old history can point us in the direction that might help explain this sort of political thinking.
Historically the scots always rallied with the French so nothing has changed

@@legandrydirk Bravely spoken! Allow me to draw your attention to the following report in the
Daily Telegraph dated 09/05/2001 under the title "Scots 'tried to set up Nazi alliance' ".
This opens with these two paragraphs -
"Scottish nationalists attempted to set up a German-Scottish alliance against England during the
Second World War, according to MI6 files released today to the Public Record Office at Kew.
They offered to proclaim an independent pro-German invasion of Scotland in the event of a
Nazi invasion of England. In return, they asked that Germany stop bombing Scotland and give
captured Scottish conscripts special treatment."
The article goes on to describe in detail what was going on and finishes with the wry comment
that "The files do not make clear if the contacts were ever followed up.", but mentions that MI5
"was already investigating the Scottish nationalists."
@@songsmith31a Tabloid newspaper bullshit and anti Scottish propaganda with a referendum coming up
None of this ever happened or else it would tell you the names of who was executed
Even during Levingston there was people tried during a war,same procedure would have happened here
Imagine how better it would be if you actually used your brain?
@@legandrydirk I fail to see what today's calls for a referendum have to do with a broadsheet newspaper report of twenty years ago but passing that irrelevance by, the next paragraph states:
"The proposals were made via the German legation in Dublin and came in the middle of a
campaign by Winston Churchill to force the Irish government to stop the Germans using the
legation as a centre for espionage and subversion."
Mention is made of the unease of the German minister in Dublin, Edward Hempel, that an alliance
with Scottish nationalists might give the British an excuse to have him expelled told Berlin that he
"obviously could not have anything to do with the business in any shape or form."
And there is more, but I think that anyone with a less prejudiced and closed mind will have already
got the gist of what was deciphered by British code-breakers between 1940 and 1943 in messages
sent to Berlin. It was the view of the Intelligence services that passed the information to government that "though individual members are mischievous and potentially dangerous, the
organisation, (which called itself "The Scottish Independence Movement") albeit full of sound and
fury, is of little consequence."
No doubt the Public Record Office can verify all of this if fact and history matter to an informed brain.

Poor England. With Scotland's departure just a matter of when, and with Wales getting itchy feet not to mention Ireland moving closer to reunification, England - after isolating itself from Europe - is now on course to be isolated within what was once the United Kingdom. The English will realise that all their country has is faded glory. Vera Lynn, Blitz spirit, Churchill. That's where it all ended. Beyond that, nothing. No waters, no resources, no real exports. Money made in London stays in London (or swims to offshore accounts). Its establishment knows this hence the dirty tricks and propaganda desperately deployed to stop Scotland, and eventually the rest, leaving. RIP England.
The question is no longer if Scotland will leave the UK, the question is when Scotland will leave the UK? Come the imminent new Scottish independence referendum, I will vote in favour of Scotland leaving the UK. This will make me very, deeply sad in many respects, but no matter, it is the way I will vote. Personally I can no longer find any justification or see any benefit in living under the control of an expensively educated, and over privileged elite band of idiots. A nostalgic quango of halfwits who select certain parts of history to subvert, subdue, modify or exaggerate inorder to suit their narrow minded and overinflated image of themselves. A group of charlatans that constantly repeat factoids that are eagerly amplified in the press and media, until they are mistakenly accepted as fact. Scotland leaving the UK can only serve as a source of motivation to the Indy curious people of Wales. The Yes movement in Wales has grown to such an extent over the last few years, that the same question once asked of Scotland are now being asked of Wales. Not if Wales will leave the UK, but when will Wales leave the UK? Weep for poor England. No seriously, weep for poor England. There's a disaster capitalist storm coming England's way. Her public services such as the NHS, and her assets are soon to be colonized and controlled by the USA. A country led by a man who ironically given the anti Celtic/European attitudes held by many of the the xenophobes in little England, comes from Scottish/German parentage.

He's hilarious..
I am from Canada and am not all that culturally familiar with England Scotland and Wales but can tell he is brilliant l and he knows his people. Man works hard at his job he sweats every set, or it could be the alcohol either way he’s as animated as a cartoon.
We need another referendum NOW, Not if they want to leave, but whether we want to leave them,, the oil has almost run out, they have nothing else we want, I do honestly love the scottish and scotland, except for sturgeon
The part about the wishes is so true and Hilarious. I'm partially french myself an our whole family gave up even trying to be Bilingual and now are pro French in Poutine and name only
England don't want to lose the oil in the north.
beth bland lmao what a stupid comment
@@NickiesAdventureChannel Come on now Alex if Scotland gets it's independence then England has no claim on the oil in what would be Scotlands territorial waters. So my comment isn't stupid, always about the money and power.
beth bland lol that oil would be depleted instantly due to the currency shift .... when the Scottish pound became lower than a empty packet of quavers .... also refining the oil ? What they just borrow those facilities ? Or they build their own ? With sticks and stones. It’s the only source of income for Scotland and it would disappear faster than 50% of Scottish people heading for UK
Alex D my god your stupid stop regurgitating information you’ve heard from other stupid people
How old is this recording ?--He lost his audience, when he got involved politically in 2015, and stood as candidate against Nigel Farage and UKIP. He lost a great deal of his fans, and his tour flopped. Due to the increase in PC restrictions, as this character, he is shut out of TV. Good to see him back .
Years old this clip.
Lol, Farage is so popular that he failed to get elected to the UK Parliament SEVEN times and ukip and the Brexit Parties HAVE ZERO MPs. Al Murray is far more popular and successful 🙂
@@probinson4383 You miss entirely, the whole purpose of Nigel Farage's intentions. Getting into Parliament, was merely a means to an end---destroying the opposition to Brexit.
As a democratically elected member of the E.U parliament (the only example in the whole circus) he destroyed all opposition to his arguments, and realised his ambition, and forced the Tory's and other's, into accepting the referendum. The rest is history. On this basis alone, he is THE most successful politician in modern history.

they want to leave the UK but stay in the EU.. makes sense...right?
yeah ts almost like the EU isnt run by a bubbling idiot ,the uk after the recent vote however........ strange isnt it?
@Charles Martel there's nothing left to run tho. You've sold all you had long ago. Clay, that's all you're left with.
don't mistake sturgeons dreams for ours. she is one fraggle, she does not speak for the majority of scots
Yawn... Go back to your PlayStation sonny and leave the real world alone
Maybe they want mass immigration, like England had for decades due to being part of the EU? ;) There's going to be so much "cultural enrichment" in Scotland if they rejoin the EU... Edinburgh can be the new London, where native white Scots will be a minority and every other person speaks with a foreign accent, just like in London. If that's what the Scots want, well go ahead then.
Scotland doesn't, just the rabid nationalists of the SNP. The rest of us would just love to export the Tories to ... oh I don't know, anywhere
The sooner the f**king better is all I have to say .
Let us then
Sound 🏴
Al Murray, so funny. He is of course right, "we were the crazy gang". It would be a shame to see a divorce - Speaking as someone who lives in England with mixed UK and European heritage including English and Welsh. Two of my cousins are half Scottish and the majority of People in UK and England have mixed Welsh, Irish, Scottish, English and European ancestry. My point being is that the UK population is so mixed up that I dont see the point in breaking it up.
leigh pierce actually quite true, I’m a mix of welsh/English/Indonesian 😔
Almost everyone I know up here don't really have a problem with the English, apart from a few who get annoyed at specific regional accents.
But still hate England.
Rebuild Hadrian's wall! Loved Scotland, Eyemouth, loch Ewe, isle of Lewis, Black houses, Drumnadrochit, Lyon's glen, Tyemouth, Crieff (The Pretoria was a surprize). God's garden.
I was born North of the wall in Northumberland so I'm English born BTW the Wall has never been the border.
They may as well leave if the scots cant even speak english.
I can barely read those words, big props to you for spelling them.
Rebuild Hadrians Wall and we lose a chunk of England 🏴.
The Pub Landlord says things that always have a grain of truth to them, but presents them in a provocative, amusing fashion - not to be taken too seriously :-) brill
I am a proud English man first and foremost. Does my head in when I hear English people say they are British first. A Scottish man will always proudly say he's a Scotsman and a Welsh man will proudly say he's a Welsh man and rightly so. You only have to take a look around London to see why the English feel pressured into saying they are British. Political correctness. Nothing wrong with being tribal. I am a massive 6 nations fan the only national anthan i find outdated now is my own!
I mean the queen doesn't need saying from anyone!
Interesting you didnt include Northern Ireland, not too many unionists will claim to be Irish 1st and British 2nd even although the Irish rugby team is inclusive of north and south. At the end of the day its about personal identity and so personal choice.
@@Finderskeepers. well we do have a British and irish lions tour the Irish being worded separate to British. As I say you will never hear a Welsh man or Scotsman say they are British first, never. Rightly so as well like I am a proud English man i will never say I am british over being English first. Its almost as if an Irish, Welsh and Scotsman are encouraged to say they are proud but if a Englishman says so then racism is brought up?
We have our own football teams. But of course I am proud of our British army. But we live in times now where an English man has to explain why he is proud to say he's English first rather than say he's british first?
Madness.
@@smokingjoe8039 absolute bullshit pal. My whole family are scottish and nearly all would claim to be british 1st. And i say that being english myself. Love that you make the assumption thay every englishmen who thinks britain 1st is pressured into it by political correctness. Get your head out your arse and stop ignoring everything that doesnt fit your agenda. People like you that drag this country down

plasteckfly yeah heard that in 2014 that Scotland would definitely vote yes. We voted NO and will do so again.
sounds like there's going to be border disputes already?

As an American, I loved Liverpool. But then again, it is the only place where there was a sign on the side of a building that read, "warning car thieves operate in this area." Another time, we had our car broken into for new CDs that were under the passenger seat. They did that in China Town while it was busy. I still love Liverpool.
Lol yeah right yank.
You Americans only know it because of the Beatles
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 I've been to Liverpool several times back in the 90s. Good times!

Very funny routine that buys in nicely to comfy centuries old misconceptions. It’s very good of the English to desperately hold on to Scotland so they can subsidise it with their hard earned cash. It’s just a pity that the rest of the empire got fed up being ‘subsidised’ and buggered off with none of them ever wanting to come back.
Cope harder
Why?
@@davegreig8933 well the independence vote went extremely well didnt it?
@@mallardofmodernia8092 Thats not an answer.
Well england arent desperately holding on to scotland are they?
N.I sure but not scotland, they dont need to, the scottish are doing that for them.
Correction. Scotland dont want to leave the UK... its just Nicola and the SNP.
Yes we do and when we become independent , we won't be leaving the UK, we will be finishing it! Tick Tock..

the problem with that argument is that people gave said it for the last 30 years and it has never happened..
Second problem is that british people want great healthcare but are too tight to pay for it.
In most countries in the EU you have to pay something at the doctors even if it is capped..
If Scotland leaves the UK, then there won't be any UK left... it'll just be England and Wales

Good bye Scotland we would be bankrupt in three day😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm Scottish and less than 1/3rd of Scotland would vote for independence. There are the Brigadoon / Braveheart deplorables, then those suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, who still vote for the SNP despite their appalling record in office. Then finally the extremists, who even after the SNP sent infected Covid 19 elderly Scottish patients from hospital back into care homes, which caused a wildfire of deaths, would even then still vote SNP. Thankfully, most Scots are sane and will never leave the UK.
That's straight up a lie
Yes Scotland wants to leave, that's why they voted to stay.......
They voted to stay because the EU told them they would have to reapply to join the EU once they left the UK.
@@lukem3250 And that's exactly what the EU is for, unelected bureaucrats telling you what can and cannot do, time the Scots grew up and put on their big boy pants...
@@ducatijim they're to pissed or spiced up to pull up their pants
@@lukem3250 Wrong. They voted to stay because english politicians told them that this is the only way they would be able to retain the EU membership.
@@Geminoduro And those politicians were correct.
