  • Many people ask if there is still rivalry between Scotland and England, so I decided to go out and ask Scottish people about their English neighbours. I spoke to a range of individuals with interesting views and stories as always.
    Hope you enjoy, let me know what you think and if you have anything to add, I'm always happy to know your opinion.

    As someone with a Scot's accent, but who's lived in England for over 30 years, I have never once been abused or criticised for being Scots. Personally I've received nothing but warmth and friendship. There is a difference politically as most Scots have a social conscience and lean to the left, whereas most English ( especially in The Midlands and South) tend to be more concerned with personal success and wealth. Northerners are more like The Scots as they believe in working to live and not the other way around. We are all blessed to be from the UK. Lang may yer lum reek ❤

A lot of the credit for that must go to QE2 when she visited Ireland in 2012. The things she said ( she spoke Irish) and did while here won the hearts of the Irish people. When William and Kate visited Galway city last March,people were waving Union Jacks. Thats right,Irish people were waving the British flag!!

As for Scotland making its way on its own and being a success, it will need an awful lot of EU help and financial input, on a very similar basis as the government of Eire had on numerous occasions, without that backing Scotland will be doomed, no wonder Sturgeon and her colleagues payed for the light display on the EU building, she is desperate and knows that Scotland will be forever hanging onto the apron strings of the failing EU.

      Have you ever watched footage of the 1966 World Cup. English fans, to a man, proudly waving union flags. You'll have a job finding a union flag at an England game these days. And do you remember the queen’s 25th, 50th and 60th accession anniversaries which were celebrated with public holidays, street parties and flags flying from every lamppost. The year 2007 saw the 300th anniversary of the union of England and Scotland - no parties, no flags, it barely got a mention in the press. It is not a celebrated union either side of the border and hasn't been for some time.
      In the last election the Welsh electorate voted in a majority of Labour MPs, the Northern Irish voted away from unionist parties and in Scotland the conservatives lost more than half their seats. The English, meanwhile, overwhelmingly voted for a particularly right wing conservative and unionist party. So, politically at least, we are very much not "as one".
      I'd say the vast majority of Scots do not dislike the English, but what they are becoming increasingly tired of, is being governed by a political party they didn't vote for.

      When I was young, I was really anti English. I was just a kid at the time and heard some others coming out with anti English stuff and just went along with it, without thinking about whether it was true, or not. Of course with any group, the Law of Averages says there are going to be those who do conform to any stereotypes there may be about that group, but that doesn't mean that most of that group conform to them. Out of all the people I know, both Scottish and English, if I was somehow unable to discern accents and whenever anyone told me where they were from, or gave other clues as to their origins, I instantly forgot it (like the guy from the film "Memento"!), I can honestly say that I doubt I could tell who was English and who was Scottish! Personally I agree with what I think George Bernard Shaw once said, namely "Patriotism is thinking that the place you come from is the best, because you happen to come from there!" I also have a German friend who tends to be late for everything and also has a good sense of humour, even thinking that the sick stuff I have told her that Jerry Sadowitz has said, when I have seen him live, is funny! I also have a Swedish friend who is one of the jolliest people you could ever meet, again dispelling stereotypes about gloomy Scandinavians! When I was young, I remember being caught up in all the excitement, hype and over confidence about the 1978 World Cup and the gloating that England hadn't qualified for the second successive time. However, thinking about it now, if the boot had been on the other foot and England had qualified and lots of English people gone on like we did, then there would be all the usual complaining about English arrogance etc.!

      The animosity doesn’t extend to English people per se. It’s more for the fact that the current set up will always favour London centric southern dynasty governments who don’t care for anything in northern realms. This drives the resentment because the Celtic nations are generally poorer. The politics will always be skewed to be London centric which doesn’t relate to Scots.
      The average everyday English person, absolutely no issues. It’s the union and representation that is the issue.

I visited the commonwealth graves of WW1 and could find no separation between scots and English soldiers. Disliking people based on colour or any other criteria is in my view based on ignorance and fear not to mention poor education.

      For every pound sent to London, we get about 60 pence back. The majority of Scots voted to leave in 2014, but people from England, living in Scotland (13% of the population) voted to stay in the union.

      @@OneTrueScotsman Good old copy & paste AY? and old data at that too, numpty! Most of your revenue is from North Sea oil pal, what happens when this is no longer feasible to drill? suppose you have deep-fried Mars bars & haggis to fall back on 🤣🤣🤣During 2022-23 tax revenue generated in Scotland, including North Sea oil revenues, amounted to £87.5 billion (8.6% of UK total). During the same period, Scotland benefited from about £106.6 billion in public spending (9.2% of UK total). These were both more than Scotland’s 8.2% population share of the UK. As a result Scotland’s total deficit was £19.1 billion or 9% of its total GDP, while the UK-wide deficit was 5.2% of UK GDP. In 2022-23 the Energy Profits Levy and energy price increases resulting from the war in Ukraine meant Scotland’s North Sea public sector revenues hit a record-high of £9.4 billion. As a result public revenue per person in Scotland was £696 higher than the UK average. At the same time, public spending per person in Scotland was £2,217 higher than the UK average. This means that, even with record-high revenues from the North Sea, people in Scotland continue to benefit from pooling and sharing resources across the UK, with a net dividend of £1,521 for each and every person in Scotland.
      Block Grant funding for the Scottish Government is the highest since devolution began at around £41 billion a year for 2022-2025. This means that for every £100 per person the UK Government spends in England on matters devolved to Scotland, the Scottish Government will receive around £126 per person in Scotland.

      Some of our revenue is from oil? So like lots of other countries then? Including the oil that's been propping up your economy, too?
      Nor will we need it to keep our economy going. Ireland, New Zealand, and a dozen other countries, similar sized, similar resourced, as Scotland, all manage perfectly fine without being chained to Little England. Scotland did for almost a thousand years, itself, before the union was forced on us.
      Unionists waged all the same sorts of pathetic threats at Ireland before they left Britain. Go and ask them if they regret it. Ask them if they'd ever return. Ask every other former colony while at you're at it.
      As far as government spending and block grants, It really isn't that straight forward. Scotland's budget is set by Westminster, and so is a good portion of the spending. A lot of that spending doesn't benefit Scotland in any way, as it is spent in the rUK, on sleazy projects like HS2, which would have brought no benefits to Scotland.
      Also, for years Scotland ran at a surplus, but were still paying interest on debt that the UK was accumulating. The figures the UK gov produce are manufactured to make it look like Scotland is in dire straits, always needing a hand out. If that was actually the case, the Tories would happily let us leave!
      The whole point of independence is to not do things the way it's been done, while Scotland has been chained to the UK. And forced to function and trade in ways that was always to benefit London, England.
      And what does it say for your country, that even if it were true, that you were "giving Scotland lots and lots of English money" that we STILL want to leave anyway?
      That the money is no good to us? It's also funny how England's the only country in the union without a significant independence movement, or even a single pro-indy political party. Yet if you're to be believed, you're throwing money around, left right and centre, to keep the union together
      It doesn't add up. Figure out why.
