Let me guess... Youre english? Scotlands land was stripped from its people and divided to the elites. It aint marxism, its the fact. And now in Scotland, if you dont have any english blood you actually have to work until you can afford a mortgage instead of having parents gift you tens of thousands. The scots were left behind a while ago in their own country because... England owns more of it than Scotland does.

More similarities with the native americans than african americans. This may be impossible to understand if you are english and have been the drivers of colonisation as opposed to the colonized.

British - not English. I always thought that you needed to be employed to apply for a mortgage in most countries? Scots people requiring an English bloodline to buy a house??English young folk being handed tens of thousands to buy property?? Not in the minority white, indigenous populated towns and cities. I said that BLM and the Irish and Scottish Nationalists are now reading from the same playbook - blame someone else for centuries of slavery, abuse and mistreatment but not actually GTFO of the country you claim to despise nor work hard to improve it for ALL. If the Wee Ginger Dwarf speaks, you know she's lying. Promising prosperity for all, with no apparent rational method of financing anything. Opening the borders to any so called asylum seekers, giving them housing and free everything to ensure their votes at election time, while locking down working class taxpayers and imposing ever more stringent anti fake flu measures. Kinda like Dem. policies maybe? I started lurking, and occasionally posting, on this site because I can identify with so much of what American Patriots are going through - not because I support left wing socialist / marxist terrorists like the Scottish National Party and Sinn Fein nor the New Kids On The Block of Antifa and Burn Loot Murder.

British.... So youre either a rangers fan living in scotland or you are english, the only two groups that call themselves british...

You need a minimum deposit which follows same rules as England but the more south you go the higher the wages and thus they move north and afford property in scotland before most scottish nationals can. Plus years of land ownership and preferential treatment by... England to the english, land gifted to english ancestors mean the average english family has much more inherited cash and property they can gift to their children to beat scottish people, yet again, to the housing ladder.

I agree with some of your points, for instance i dont want open borders and i dont think i want eu membership. If youve been watching closely then youd know there is a split ongoing with the snp between progressives and those who are nationalist.

Im sorry it upsets you but im not asking for reparation, you go look after your own country and leave scotland to become non dependant. I loved Trumps America First policy thats what i want for scotland.

Another example of the disparity, compare the english premiership with the scottish. British nationalists were happy to see that gap in wealth and quality increase...

Would you be happy if a London burgh hosted a yearly festival that drove rent and cost of living up, was mostly scottish companies that set up temporary shop and paid all their tax on that festival to scotland who then sent england 8% of that later? I would think thatd piss you off but maybe im wrong?

You're wrong on so many counts about me. I have zero interest in any form of soccer which is why I'm replying to a post about RUGBY ! I only played the game for 20+ years, not at a high level admittedly, but the whole point of rugby is to socialise with the opponent you've been knocking hell out of for 80 minutes. Unlike soccer where the idea seems to be get drunk and fight with anyone in the vicinity. On that point the Scottish national team have a very good record - but that could be because they haven't qualified for a major tournament since the days of black and white television. The Irish rugby team includes players from Northern Ireland - the bit that is in the UK. There are people from all four countries that are proud to identify as British, since their passport will identify them as such. Membership of the EU is no longer an issue - we left.

It's my understanding that the Scottish football leagues only have players with very basic skills, which makes TV deals very hard to obtain. Much like women's sports really. As I said, I'm British therefore I am interested in the well being and financial stability of all Countries of the UK - the only thing that pisses me off is the political classes attempts to divide and control my Country. Has Sturgeon been scooped by the Polis yet - asking for a friend ?🤔😁
