I find it amusing that people who post deliberately offensive bile to wind people up complain about others doing the same.

I find it amusing when people complain about divisive organisations by making divisive statements. I also find it amusing when people go public with political statements and don't expect flak. Then they pull the old I feel threatened routine.

What about English and British Nationalists, who see prejudice against 'the native people of the UK' everywhere....

The SNP has some of the nastiest trolls around though as a party their nationalism has tended to be more inclusive than their English equivalents; taking in everyone living in Scotland rather than people born in Scotland, though you would have no problem finding individual examples of thoroughly nasty comments from SNP activists and elected officials. It is also worth noting that the SNP has always had a decent handful of English born MSP's. I think half a dozen in the last assembly. One thing I only saw recently was a Daily Record article which reported that a majority of people born in Scotland voted for independence but that 72% of people born in England Wales and NI voted No. In other words if the Scots had been able to restrict the ballot in the same was as the EU referendum was then Scotland would be independent yet no SNP leader has ever challenged the result.

Lets hope they get their independence and join the Euro and all the rest of it. Let them live under EU rule. Edited by Stirlingsays (01 Mar 2017 2.22pm)
