Originally posted by jamiemartin721 I'm British, because that's the passport I hold. I worked in Glasgow for a few years, and my experience, is that Scots, like the Welsh and the English, are basically comprised of people who don't care about nationality, except for sports, people who really don't care, and some people who take it all a bit to seriously. I think its important to separate as Welsh, Northern Irish, Scottish and English, because its kind of fun to take p1ss. Lets face it, without national rivalry Rugby would be even more boring. In my opinion, around 40% of people are cts, the other 60% don't realise they're cts. Where do you get your numbers from Jamie? I know how percentages work you piss taker EDIT: this is from wikipedia: White (59.8%) Asian (18.4%) Black (13.3%) Mixed (5%) Arab (1.3%) Other (2.1%) This is from a 2011 census which has two issues. It's very old and the census isn't filled in by everybody Edited by Palace_love_affair (16 May 2016 5.15pm) "We're the Holmesdale, We're the Holmesdale, We're the Holmesdale over here!!"

Originally posted by fed up eagle Well that was a very different Britain to the one we have today. I actually served this country for eight years of my life, I was once proud to be 'British', however our national identity has been eroded by years of politically correct BS, the selling off of industry (both Tory and Labour), mass immigration and the giving away of powers to un-elected bellends in Brussells. It's like watching an old friend die. I would now consider myself English, not British and certainly not European. All you can ever be sure of in life is that things will eventually change in ways that are alien and unwanted. You either adjust to reality or get 'stuck' and angry.
